The lone medical marijuana dispensary in this Northern California wine country enclave has become such a pot destination that it has more patients on its rolls than the town has people. But local officials view the business as a welcome addition to the community and a strong source of tax revenue during the recession. The Peace in Medicine marijuana dispensary is a clean, modern operation occupying a recently closed Ford dealership near downtown and could easily be mistaken for a doctor's office, if not for the three security guards and overwhelming skunky smell of pot.(AP Photo / Russel A.
