We don't have a fireplace. Santa comes through our front door. ;)
Nice sign!

Great, I wonder if he only cleans mountain top chimneys. :)

Clytie said...

The last time I climbed on my roof, I felt like I WAS on a mountain top! I can't imagine doing it full time (i.e. chimney sweeps and/or Santa!)

Now that's a sign with a creative twist! Large and eye-catching!

I'm sure this is a very important job...for someone else.

After living in South Florida for over 20 years and never seeing a chimney (there are some down that away, though), we moved to Ocala to a house with a fireplace and had to hire a chimney sweep. I didn't even know such persons existed!

Yellow Tara said...

hahahhaha...wish we had a chimney too!

Lesley said...

That is an odd looking chimney. But, really what is a cabin on a mountain top without one?!

Kim, USA said...

Awesome sign.

Genie said...

When we heated with wood stoves, we had the nicer chimney sweep. The tragedy he had seen diagnosed with cancer because of all the creosote he had been inhaling. We also have a lumber mill here where they use creosote on the boards....many from there have contracted cancer. Being around it is so very dangerous. The sigh I love, but I am concerned for the health of the workers. genie

I would hate to see their bathtub after a day of work!
