Thanks to Mary Christine, who brought back some very fond, sober memories – I thought I’d offer you a couple of brief links to part of A.A.’s founder’s history.

This is where it all started;

You can find out exactly where it is here. And you can find some things about the owners here.

This is Stepping Stones, the Historic home of Bill and Lois Wilson;

I’d be willing to bet this is a piece of info you didn’t know :-) Mary Christine has a picture from the Savannah Club House up at her Blog today. The picture is of Anne Smith, Dr. Bob’s wife. I’ll bet you didn’t know this;

Anne Smith was the Mother of AA. Yep! “Bill W. once called Anne Smith the mother of AA. This may have been not only because of her actions, but because of the direct influence of her thoughts and writings on the Twelve Steps and other AA literature.”
