Times have changed, no doubt. Last week, a member of the Mendocino County Board of Supervisors and a sheriff’s sergeant testified in a Santa Rosa courtroom on behalf of two men charged with transporting pot through Sonoma County.

Though apparently posted in May, this is the first time I’ve seen it.

There is no place like SoHum and the special lifestyle we have here. With the looming legalization of weed, there will undoubtedly be significant changes.
