PACIFIC COAST SLAVIC BAPTISTS ASSOCIATION SOBER HOUSE

A mailman can be a wealth of information if he will stop long enough to share. This day I was gifted with a moment or two and learned that a house at the end of the street was bought by Pacific Coast Slavic Baptists Association and has been turned into a Sober House.

Wow!

That was not all. He said to check out last nights news. I did. The house has only been opened a short time and the report was about one of the getting sober people slipping out one night recently and attacking an elderly man across the street.  Then they interviewed the man running the house and he had a "don't give a care" attitude. Isn't that just fantastic?

Many Rio Linda people got together to try to get them ousted but to no avail. Looks like we have  gotten a better reason to keep our gates locked. Our little bit of sanctuary from the outside world has just gotten closer to what we are trying to avoid.

CBS news report

I guess it could be worse, it could have been a drug rehab, but either way I just do not understand how they can plop something like that in the middle of the neighborhood without notifying the other residents.
