Occasionally you will find a small community of very religious Baptists though. This would not fit with cannabis, however I only know of one of these in all of central and midcoast maine.
Maybe 10 miles from a Supercenter would be fine with me (and a Lowe's or a Home Depot would be nice, too). I like big chains when it comes to retail merchandise, and I also like it that Supercenters are open 24 hours. (I just don't support big chain pharmacies where you can't get to know your pharmacist's on more a personal basis. With big pharmacies treating people like numbers, it's time for an overhaul on humanity.)

That's what I figured, so I'm really interested in finding the most modernized "big town/small city" in Aroostook County.

I believe the largest town in Aroostook county is Presque Isle.

I've actually heard good things about Presque Isle, and I like where it's located within the state of Maine, along with its elevation, too.

Now I must see if there is an existing dispensary in Presque Isle.

Hmm, there doesn't seem to be a Maine site listing its dispensaries. . ..

Do the northern lights even hit northern maine that often? I know its more often than the southern part of the state, but i am assuming it can not be that often.

No, it's not that often--not like more northern latitudes--but it's better than never. I've yet to ever see them. . ..

My birth-father was a Southern Baptist preacher so I know all about the evils of organized religion.

Sounds like Louisiana haha...

Hmm, yes, there is a California strain called "Northern Lights".

Actually, the state of Louisiana has a medicinal exception for cannabis, but I think it's just the CBD component alone that that state currently allows, which is quite asinine since it's the ensemble of the whole plant is what's needed for the best healing ratio.

Even "Charlotte's Web", the strain that has virtually no THC (the psychoactive component of cannabis) and is mainly CBD uses the whole plant. They've just bred the THC out of that particular strain so that the other valuable components of the cannabis plant are still available to the kids who would have to live their lives with multiple, uncontrollable seizures on a daily basis were it not for the whole cannabis plant being available to them.
