Feb 6, 2010: Chinese Daycare

Back in the '50's my parents lived in an apartment complex not far from the UN in New York. There was a big common green space for the apartment dwellers and there were several close lines set up for drying clothes. My older brother who was 4 at the time had a habit of wondering off (he was once returned by the mail man) so my mother hiched him to the clothes line much like you would tether a dog. He had the run of the lawn but couldn't get much farther away.

Oh, I should add that he turned out pretty much normal.
