My Second Ski Lift Ride

By Leighton Weber

Will it be scary or not?

Will I be cold?

Will the snowboard instructor be nice?

Will there be people I like there?

I went snowboarding and had to ride on the ski lift.

I got super confused because there were a lot of people.

I was afraid that I would miss the chair on the ski lift.

There were so many people there.

It was loud as thunder.

We got to get in the ski lift line early.

But there was a problem.

I needed a ski lift card!

So we tried to get me a ski lift card.

Some how they got me one.

I don't know how but they did.

I had to step on this line and 

then the chair came.

The chair was as fast as a cheetah.

When the chair came, it was 

exciting but very, very scary.

The snowboard was dangling in the air.

My instructor asked,

"Is this your second time going 

on a ski lift?"

"Yes," I said.

The wind mixed with the snow

was pounding against my face.

It was really, really scary.

I could barely hear my instructor

because it was so loud.

I felt like it was getting as hot

as the desert.

It was a very, very long ride,

it was slow as a sloth.

It took five minutes on the ski lift.

Then came the drop off!

The End
