Not so good babysitter's!

After posting the little picture of Shelley I remembered the time Galen and I were left to babysit Shelley on a Sat afternoon. Mom, Dad & Thurman were cleaning the buildings, Marilyn was at work at J.C. Penney's. This was probably the summer of 1969, Shelley was taking a nap on Mom and Dad's bed, Galen and I were hanging around the house. Then Galen decided he wanted to go drive, he was turning 16 and wanted to practice. We just left the house wide open and hopped into the 67 mustang and headed out to the roads behind the State Hospital. Shortly after arriving, Galen was driving and all of sudden we both looked at each other and said "SHELLEY"!! We had walked out of the house, left the front door open with just the screen door shut and left Shelley on the bed sleeping!! We raced back to the house hoping we would beat Mom and Dad home!! Thank God she was O.K. and still asleep!
