Dancing In A Forklift

Well, to the some of you that actually spend their time reading my blog, this title might seem really weird so let me describe a forklift. A forklift is a construction vehicle that is sort of like a lift. It has different head parts such as a drill, man basket, and crane. (We, of course, were in the man basket since any of the others would have meant death.) It is big and long too. Here's a picture of what it looked liked.
                                          
So, me and my friend, let's call her Elisabeth since she loves that name, were in there with these harnesses (Refer to picture below paragraph) that were too big for us and they hooked onto the bar on the man basket. We were in the man basket to put up our Christmas lights and it was so scary since it moved around a lot! I was so scared! It would jerk around a lot too! So while we were up there, Elisabeth started dancing while it was standing still and then I started dancing too and we were having so much fun, but then it started moving and I totally almost fell out! I was so scared! I couldn't believe my luck that I didn't die that day. Then I almost stepped on a light bulb and it just was a weird cold freezing day. Anyway, the lesson learned is safety hooks are amazing.
