The Sanctuary

Jennifer and I were riding the roads of New Jersey and came upon an apparent housing development called "The Sanctuary."

I saw this and found it amusing and remarked to Jennifer that perhaps only dead people lived there. Then it dawned on me that someone would have to pay rent or maintenance costs. Last I checked dead people were incapable of that function.

Or maybe, there is some religious connection. Maybe it's a retirement community for members of the clergy. The clubhouse would be quite unique and presumably nondenominational.

The last possibility was that it's an offshoot of The Addams Family with a Lerch-like character as the manager. "Welcome to the Sanctuary, Marty" he would bellow.

It's all too strange for me. I don't care if every appliance is made of gold, I'm not living in a place called The Sanctuary. It would freak me out.
