This Overlooked Michigan Town Still Has Apartments Renting For Under $700 A Month

Nobody told Iron Mountain, Michigan that it was supposed to be undiscovered, and honestly, that’s exactly why it’s still worth discovering. The Upper Peninsula has a way of keeping its best secrets close, and this town is one of them. Most people in the lower half of Michigan...

Menominee grants three conditional marijuana licenses

MENOMINEE — The City of Menominee has granted conditional marijuana retail licenses to three businesses that are built out and prepared to open. “We have started moving forward and have issued a retail license to the following: Highwire Wire Farms, Per I/Urb and Per II/Puff,” City Manager Brett Botbyl stated in an email. He said the licenses are contingent on the businesses passing all state and local inspections, codes, rules and full payment of application fees and/or past due/current taxes. This action comes as the result of a Nov. 3 ballot initiative that saw about 60% of voters approve increasing the number of marijuana licenses from nine to 13. There currently are eight licensed marijuana retailers in the city. All three of the businesses granted conditional licenses took different paths to get to this point. Highwire Farms, 1015 10th St. (corner of 10th Street and 10th Avenue), was part of a 2023 settlement agreement. Puff Cannabis, 2305 10th St. (the former Family Video location), was built out and ready to open last summer but could not get approval from the city. Urb, 1015 26th Ave. (the corner of 10th Street), has been ready to open for more than a year.

A Michigan deer wandered for 10 days with a plastic Halloween pumpkin stuck over its mouth, and rescuers say they get calls like it every year

A young buck in Michigan spent 10 days with a plastic Halloween pumpkin stuck on its head before volunteers freed it on Sunday, according to BroBible . The Detroit Animal Welfare Group led the effort and says it tracked the deer to Hines Park in Westland, miles from the Livonia neighborhood where it was first spotted. Volunteers tranquilized the animal and removed the bucket. The deer first drew attention after a resident in a Livonia neighborhood recorded video of it with the plastic pumpkin bucket stuck over its mouth. The group says it began receiving calls shortly after Halloween and posted on social media asking people to report sightings. It says it received several updates and photos but could not catch up to the deer, which was becoming weak and thin. The group says it was concerned that the deer would become dehydrated and eventually starve, as the bucket kept it from eating or drinking. It received permission from the Michigan Department of Natural Resources to tranquilize the animal if volunteers could reach it. The group also asked for help from drone pilots, including one with a heat sensing drone, to track the deer down. Volunteers waded through water and

Maroons hit the Jett to push past Charlevoix in Regional championship clash

MENOMINEE — Walton Blesch Stadium has been host to many memorable football games over its 126 years of existence, but few were as awash with drama as Saturday’s MHSAA Division 7 Regional 25 championship contest between Menominee and Charlevoix. Trailing by one, a Menominee defense on the brink of exhaustion delivered a crucial third-down stop to force a Charlevoix punt with just over a minute remaining in the fourth quarter. Talan Jacobs’ booming kick took a Rayders’ bounce over the head and into the arms of Jett Thonne at the Maroons’ 24-yard line as a swarm of Charlevoix gunners closed in. Quickly scanning the field in front of him, Thonne slipped to his left and found himself squarely behind a convoy of Maroon blockers. With Thonne’s every step, the Walton Blesch crowd grew louder and louder until pandemonium overtook the bleachers as Thonne rumbled his way deep into Charlevoix territory for an 80-yard return. “He (Jacobs) kicked it over my head a little bit but I just got the ball and let my blockers lead the way for me,” Thonne said. “He’s only a sophomore but he’s not afraid to make plays when it’s his time. We had a wall
