Well guys – we have officially gone and done it! We have purchased a 5 acre piece of property in Sedro Wooley Washington and are currently working on fixing it up. The plan is to open a high-end cannabis friendly event facility (think of me as the PNW’s Martha Stewart of Cannabis) where we can host weddings, reunions, corporate and holiday parties, music festivals and more. The hope is that this side of the buisness will generate enough money to fund “campers” coming to stay with us to learn about how to grow, prepare and consume cannabis and cbd, along with the other lifestyle changes I have incorporated into my life over the past three years.
My absence from here over the past months means that unless you have been following along on one of my other social media platforms, this may come as a complete surprise, and might seem too good to be true, but let me assure you, it is as true as it gets and it is even more magical than the pictures and videos portray. It is a slice of heaven on earth, and it is ours and we are going to be able to share it with the world, while educating people about cannabis in a relaxed and natural environment AND we are hopefully going to be able to help others learn how to grow their OWN organic medicines! My hope is that concerns about quality and supply can hopefully become a thing of the past as people begin to grow their own. Becoming “self-sufficient” in terms of what I eat and what I take for my MS has become more and more important to me as I continue to heal. I am no longer willing to take risks as to what I am putting in my body and I’ll be damned if I am going to put any more toxins or chemicals in my already damaged body.
So many different things to share – HOPING that you have been following elsewhere (my IG, Shawn’s IG and Lucienne’s are probably the best way to keep up on our day to day activities.) As our lives get busier and my issues with my vision and screen time continue to be a hurdle – I will do my damnedest to figure out ways around the vision and brain fog that hits when I am confronted with too much information (which the internet manages to do to me every single time these days.) I’ve spent a bit of time re-visiting old posts – things I have no recollection of ever writing and i am so thankful that I have this journal – documenting this crazy ass ride I have been on since hearing the words “You have MS” almost thirteen years ago.
In the meantime – head on over to EVERYDAY HEALTH – where my latest article went live this morning.
My Dream of Teaching Others About the Power of Cannabis
It is a great overview of our visions for the property and the camp along with the wonderful story of how we got ourselves a Lucy. #everyoneneedsalucy

Hi my name is Erin Baker. I am 41 and have been diagonised since the age of 16. I have tried some of the earlier medications which were not effective. I have not been on any medicines since the age of 19 except for cannibas. I would love to speak to you about your journey with ms. I would also love to attend ypur retreat also. I look forward to hearing from you.
Hi Erin Baker!
Thanks so much for stopping by and taking time to read some of my stuff. As for speaking, at the moment, my plate is a bit full between trying to get the camp up and running and trying to get book number two out of my mind and onto paper to share with others. But I will continue to share here and on on my instagram, which is where currently I am far more active and if you have any specific questions or issues that you would like to address, please feel free to email me at bbhwithms.com.
I really DO hope you make it to our camp some day so that we can meet, medicate and share stories!!!
Cheers
Megan
I was also diagnosed with MS at 27 and am 41 now. I have RRMS but am afraid to try cannabis.
I can completely empathize with your concerns about cannabis. I went into this whole “going to naturally manage my disease” thing knowing little to nothing about it other than the fears and stigmas our society has highlighted. Not going to lie, I hemmed and hawed for months after coming off all the perscriptions before heading into a dispensary. I was fearful of getting stoned and my old man and all of our kids making fun of me. And I feared feeling out of control.
But then one day I realized that I had been just as scared (if not more) with all of the dmds and prescriptions. Each time I would get a new medicine it would take me days, sometimes weeks, to give it a go. And I realized that I never feel in control with this crazy ass disease, so perhaps feeling a bit “high” wouldn’t be any worse than any of the other symptoms and issues that I have to deal with.
Given just how significantly my life has improved over the past five years of “naturally managing my disease” – thanks to cannabis, cbd, other plant based medicines, diet and exercise – I am just super super thankful to past me for drumming up the balls to give weed a try:)
Megan, congrats on your purchase and inspirational plans for the place. To introduce myself and family, my parents bought the property in 1970 ish and had the house built in 1972. We spent years finishing the basement, clearing stumps & trees, extensively landscaping and had the pond dug out. Dad named it H.H.H. Ranch and had a wood sign made. Have no idea on the triple H meaning. Mom sold the place in 2002. If you are interested in some history of the ranch, please let me know. People love looking at album pictures.
Bob!!!!
