My Favorite Things

So, after sitting on the highway for about 4 hours to get home to Jersey, I decided what my future posts will be on. The little (or big) things in life that make me happy. Haha.

Because that is my life - being happy. =)

Favorite Thing #1:

This Favorite Thing was actually inspired by my long trip back. I was tired and grumpy, but yet, everytime I saw a car carrier truck (I couldn't find the "official" name anywhere online) it makde me smile! I think they're so cute. Why? It looks like their wearing hats!


But my question is ... how exactly do they get those cars on that truck? And not fall off? Especially when you're driving past the truck at 80 miles an hour and the wind is blowing and you wonder ... how secure are those cars?

1. You drive the car up the ramp

2. Get out of said car once you've driven up the ramp

3. Slowly use the mechanics to lift car (did you do step two? or else you're screwed)

4. Check mechanics/lock car in place (this will only work if you did step two)

5. Admire your work!
