Around Town Middleton: CBD, just like everywhere else in Wisconsin

In Wisconsin, users of cannabis and CBD are as close as Main Street.  (Green Bay Press Gazette, 6/23/2019)

Kickapoo Kind owner Tim Murphy said he has seen the popularity of cannabis blossom, including among some unlikely people. Customers come from many miles away to check out Murphy’s products. The shop recently moved to larger space on Main Street in Viroqua to handle the demand. 

“I’ve had people come from Richland Center, Prairie du Chien, Elroy, all over,” Murphy said. “All walks of life. I’ve had 90-year-old grandmas in here, and I’ve had little babies (with epilepsy) in here. Every single walk of life that you can think of has walked through that door.”

Surely, Tim, those little babies with epilepsy were in the arms of a parent (or other caregiver).

From the Sinclair Lewis Society FAQ page:

Main Street (1920) With this novel, Lewis added the words "Main Street" (sense 2b) to Americans' vocabulary to represent the closed culture and arrogant contentedness of small towns.
