Steele Furniture Sign

James drove the bucket lift to the next location today, and I got up on it for a little bit to feel it out and see what I was up against.  The Steele Furniture sign seems so small from far away! I thought it would be much easier than I realized it was going to be once I got up there and saw it close up.



It wasn't really the size of the sign that bothered me so much, but the height of it.  It is really, really high, and I have to extend the bucket lift way up in the air, almost as far as it can go.   For my husband, who tried it first, it wasn't much...he's used to doing stuff like that, having worked at the Cable company for years and being in lifts multiple times over the years. But for me, completely new to this...it was very scary up there in the air, shaking back and forth with the wind!  It was steady enough at first, but it got really windy all at once while I was up there, and shook the basket pretty hard - scared the living daylights out of me. lol   I will just have to get used to the shaking.  Hopefully tomorrow won't be as windy as it was today!

This was my view from the basket...


As you can see, I'm going to have to work around some messy, broken lights.  They are going to be a pain to work with, but hopefully it won't be too much trouble. 



Here's another closeup.


And here is what the sign looks like from the sidewalk.  Seems so much smaller from there.  


I'll be sure to post progress once I've started!

    I've never liked heights, haven't faught the fear either, I admire your strength and courage here! Would you feel more secure if you had a belt and tether attached to the bucket? Just a suggestion, I sure would feel better if I was tethered to something secure if it were me up that high! Good luck, Bethany, I bet this is going to be awesome when you get it finished!
