If the idea of a marijuana-friendly town gives you an anticipatory buzz, you may consider taking a trip to California, where one municipality is slated to become one big pot tourism destination.
Recreational marijuana will be legal in California as of Jan. 1, and in an effort to take advantage of the impending green rush, American Green Inc. — a company that makes cannabis products like body balms, pet treats, and mints — has purchased the entire town of Nipton for $5 million, Bloomberg reports.
The goal is to turn it into a weed-friendly tourism spot over the next 18 months by using some existing structures and building others, all powered by renewable energy.
For example, a new facility will make water infused with Cannabidiol or CBD, which doesn’t make you feel stoned but is believed to have medical benefits. There are plans for edible marijuana products, retail stores, and even artist-in-residence programs as well.

Don't knock it until you have tried it. With all the medical research and proven abilities of marijuana to HELP people, why are people like you still against it? Do you own stock in pharmaceutical companies?
It's okay, it's Dick Nixon commenting from the grave.
This is an incredible idea.
I love it.
Marijuana causes terrible anxiety among those who do not use it.
