Mass. Man Gets DUI after Driving onto AA Co-Founder’s Lawn
December 27th, 2012
DORSET, Vt. (AP) — Vermont State Police say a man faces a drunken driving charge after driving onto the lawn of the historic home in Dorset once owned by the co-founder of Alcoholics Anonymous.
Police say 55-year-old Donald Blood III of Marlboro, Mass., was ordered to appear in court in Bennington on Jan. 14.
Police say Blood thought he was driving into a parking lot, but actually it was the lawn of the Wilson House, built in 1852, the birthplace of AA co-founder Bill Wilson.
The Wilson House’s website describes it as a “place of sanctuary where people can come to give thanks to God for their new lives.”
It still hosts several AA meetings each week.







Alcoholism is a terrible disease. Young people who start drinking in their teen years are more susceptible.
What was Mr.Blood’s… blood alcohol content? DUI into the AA Co Founder’s lawn.. Now there is double Irony!!
I have been to the Willis house and visited the grave sight of Bill Wilson what a wonderful place and I would like to say that should be a wake up call for Mr. Blood because what other sign do you need to be given then that. They even hold AA meetings there sounds like a good place to start.
Seems like a sign to me.
God put him there for a reason!!!! Lol bill Wilson walks out with AA book…..it’s time Mr!

Dont claim to be an expert when you know very little. Because you attended Smith College dosent mean your Gloria Steinham.
Shawnm it is VT.. Remember?
@Tracy Poudrier sorry I am engaged. First you previously stated you wanted support for you & your partner. You got it. Then you stated you were so type of phd. aka dr now your an investigator which is it? Now I hope dont tell us all your a school teacher “do not pay attention to detail”.
shawnm it is painfully obvious you are in love with me, and it is ok. you should be ok with that.
Tracy Poudrier@ sorry I am engaged. First you previously stated you wanted support for you & your partner. You got it. Then you stated you were so type of phd. aka dr now your an investigator which is it? Now I hope dont tell us all your a school teacher “do not pay attention to detail”.
Right Tracy Poudrier seek help. I hope your “life partner” understands your issues.
wow shawnm you had such a stunning comeback. Are you trying to avoid me since you know I am right.?
thanks shawnm but again i am an investigator. continue deny your love for me but i know it is there.
Tracy Poudrier. I can understand why this post is so close to you. You may need an AA meeting if that is your issue. I’m just going on what you previously posted.Get your lies/story straight.Sad.
shawnm again it is investigator. Yes I am sure you are engaged just as much as I am a *******. You just keep repeating yourself. you have nothing else to offer. no matter how much I tell you that you are the one who is wrong you insist on repeating yourself and telling me what you think I am and you could not be farther from the truth. You cannot even get what I do right even though I have repeated it over and over again. You lack compassion and do not pay any attention to detail.
I never said I was a Dr.. I continuously denied being a ******* and only once you would not give up i agreed to say what you wanted to hear after the constant banter from you. Now I highly doubt you are engaged unless you bantered the poor person into agreeing to marry you because that is how you role.
More so to you Shawnm. Anyone else reading these threads can see it is all you.
I support you & your lifepartner in your marriage in VT recently. I just wondering why you claim one thing on one post & another thing on another. If you need help please seek it.
once again shawnm you are wrong and do not listen.
Lol lol its shawnm the news40 Troll..
he must sit in front of his computer and await your response Tracy. As a battle of wits he is not much of a competitor…. trollers gonna hate! LOL.
