Found just 25 miles north of Seattle, Everett is the largest city in Snohomish County, Washington. Though many may prefer the hustle and bustle of Seattle just south of this city, there are plenty of fun things to do for all ages. Those who love the outdoors will enjoy the city’s trails, parks and recreational activities available in the city. Centennial Trail and Meadowdale Beach Park have some of the best trails for views. Many who are eager to learn will love a tour at Boeing’s Future of Flight exhibit in Everett, where they can learn about the history of Boeing airplanes for hands-on, interactive fun. Additionally, the beautifully maintained Mukilteo Lighthouse is listed on both the Washington State Heritage Register and the National Register of Historic Places.
While medical and recreational marijuana have both been legal in Everett, Washington, since 2012, there are a few things to note before consuming weed in this city. First things first, recreational laws state that only adults 21 and over can purchase and possess up to one ounce of usable marijuana, 16 ounces of marijuana-infused edibles, 72 ounces in liquid form and 7 grams of marijuana concentrates. Medical marijuana patients can be of any age but must have a designated caregiver over the age of 21. Next, Washington State law prohibits using marijuana on public property or in vehicles – therefore it is only legal to smoke on private property. Legally, those driving with more than 5 nanograms of active THC per milliliter of blood, could result in significant legal penalties. Traveling outside of state borders with marijuana is also illegal, so if staying in Everett, be sure to buy your weed there, too. Finally, dispensaries in the city must close by 11 p.m., so don’t forget to buy your weed during the day.
