Halloween 1971

I wish that we still had those holiday decorations. I have some similar ones now but they aren't made as nice and well as those from the 1970s.
 

Autumn Leaves- 1971

I recently had photos made out of  these and other slides of my brother and me from 1971. There were only about 14 of them. All of our other slides are from before my lifetime- many are from 1968. I guess that by 1971, my parents weren't as interested in doing slides. 

It has been fun looking at them on the viewer. I still have about 90 more to do. I wish that I could afford to have many more made into photos but this is expensive so I could only pick out a limited number.

 

The Sandbox

Here I am having some fun in my sandbox in 1971. I was only about a year and a half so I can't remember this. My earliest memory is not a happy one like this, it's of my dad carrying me in the cemetary and accidentally burning my arm with his cigarette. I see that he is smoking in this photo too. I was probably around 3 or 4 when that happened. It seems that my most vivid memories are often the upsetting ones. What are some of your earliest memories?
