this distinctive home, known as the castro castle. it was the home to the late dennis peron, an activist who helped helped drive the legalization of medical marijuana. peron's loved ones are figuring out the future of the museum on 17th street in the castro district. abc seven news reporter tim johns has our story from the outside. >> the bright exterior of the so-called castro castle might look like several homes in this notoriously colorful neighborhood. but go inside and you'll experience a living piece of san francisco history. this was the first medical marijuana initiative in san francisco. john entwistle lives in the house he previously shared with his husband, dennis peron. peron, who died in 2018, was a prominent cannabis activist in the 90s. he coauthored the proposition that would legalize medical marijuana in california, and ultimately became credited with changing the political debate about cannabis around the

country. over the years, entwistle and others have turned a portion of the home into a museum honoring peron's legacy, showing some of the 50 years of struggle from the dark days when they would put you in jail for ten years for giving a guy two joints. >> and they did that. or they put you in jail for one year just for protesting by lighting up a joint on the steps of the police station. they put you in jail for a year. to today, where you can legally buy it in most cities in america. >> but entwistle says the museum is facing an uncertain future after years of living there. entwistle, who doesn't own the home, says it's likely he'll soon have to leave. he says the owners are planning to sell. as a result, he's looking for a new home for the cannabis museum, something he calls an important piece of american and san francisco history. >> people come here looking to find out this story. they want to experience. they want to understand what happened here. that is a big part of san francisco history. >> peron's brother, brian, supports entwistle's plan to

preserve his brother's legacy. the pair tell me they're hoping to ultimately move the museum into a space downtown, a place where visitors can learn about the history of cannabis and san francisco's role in changing how the nation views it. >> dennis changed the face of marijuana that it used to. people used to think is just a bunch of hippies. but then he showed that there were old people who needed it also, and that it was not just a recreational thing, but but it was a medicine. >> while marijuana has been fully legal in california since 2016, entwistle believes there's still more work to be done in other parts of the country. that's why he's hoping one day this collection will serve as a lesson in hope. >> that's the goal, is to inspire other people to do more things, to make the world a better place. >> in san francisco, tim johns, abc seven news. >> a man and his dog are safe at home this morning after the dog was attacked by a mountain lion in the santa cruz mountains. bella bella's owner, richard baker, says she walked outside and after about 20 minutes, bella returned with injuries.

she had bite marks all across her body, some even puncturing her skull, and she was close to turning septic. >> my first reaction, to be honest, was i don't know if i can can save her. >> she's got that fighter instinct, you know? and so i think that that love that she has had for life and, you know, the family is what kept her here. you know, fighting. >> and bella continues to battle an infection, but is so far making a miraculous recovery. baker says he's facing about $20,000 in vet bills, but his dog will hopefully have a full recovery by mid-november. now for a building a better bay area breakthrough. santa clara county is the first in the state to enroll people into a brand new program, providing medi-cal to those exiting incarceration. >> this means that gains that were made while in custody through mental health services, drug addiction treatment, and

farmers and bringing a lot of produce in. we're just starting to bring in many different kinds of food. we hope it's a blueprint for our state. 100% organic, first in the nation. >> backers say this can be a model for school cafeterias throughout america. a french newspaper claims a fitness app based here in the bay area is giving away the confidential movements of president biden and vice president harris, and other world leaders. the newspaper found the strava app allows officials to be tracked easily because of many of their bodyguards. use the apps strava records fitness activities, and users can share their workouts with the community. the us secret service told the newspaper it doesn't believe the protection it provides is compromised in any way by using the app. >> the nasdaq reaching record territory after the market closed yesterday, driven by a rise in alphabet, the parent of google, after it beat earnings expectations. the nasdaq jumped nearly 0.8% to a new record high. experts say it's due to
