Hypnotic Plumber

So I'm driving down the highway into Salt Lake the other day... feeling a little overwhelmed as we all do sometimes.

Wife. Mother. Real Estate. Piano. Photography.
Love 'em all. But it had been a week.
I was pondering to myself how to "find the balance".

I look over and noticed a vehicle next to me, covered in writing.
A large picture of Merlin the Wizard graced the side of the truck.
"A little unusual", I thought to myself.
Beneath the wizard were the words Merlin Plumbing...
Clever play on words.

It got better.

As I proceeded to read the company name, they not only did plumbing, but heating too.
O.K., I can handle that.
Merlin Plumbing & Heating.

It was the words that followed that caught my eye however as I continued to read..
By this time, I'm adjusting my speed to parallel the plumber next to me.
He probably thought I was stalking him.

Merlin Plumbing & Heating & Astrology...
WHAT?
Did I read that correctly?
No, it couldn't be.

It got even better.

It kept going..
By this time the words are spilling down the side of the truck as there was not enough room.
Merlin Plumbing Heating & Astrology & Hypnotist.

I of course had to "Google it" upon my arrival home later that evening, as I was still laughing to myself about it.

Turns out that it's a local company right here in Park City!

Clogged toilets, leaky faucets? Pisces? Libra?
So yes ladies, you can now have your horoscope read to you by a man with plumber's crack.
Now that's a visual.

Point taken.
I guess my jobs aren't that bad after all.

  1. I love all the pictures you have taken! You are a great photographer, I would love to get into photography some day. Until then I wondered how much you would charge to take some pictures of Cali and us?
