Show New Ulah American fork Citi.en - Thursday, August 15, 2002 - Page 12 Fire fighters to fill boot for M.D. MM American Fork fire fighters will take on a different role for the next two weekends as they stand on street corners and accept donations dona-tions for the Muscular Dystrophy Association. It is part of the annual "Fill the Boot" drive, which last year collected more than $17,000 to fight the disease. The American Fork Fire Department was the No. 1 volunteer volun-teer station in the state and No. 5 overall in filling the boot last year. Firefighters will be at the intersections of 500 East and State Street and at West Main and State Streets and at local merchants mer-chants from Aug. 21 to 23 and 28 to 30. "Please watch for them, drive safely and contribute to MDA," said organizers. "The AFFD thanks you for your support and has a goal of collecting $20,000 this year." o Water Continued from front page ber of the American Fork Metropolitan Water Hoard, he said the community would be responsible to pay for water it was eligible to receive from the Central Utah Project (CUP), even if the city never takes or uses the water. City Attorney Kevin Bennett said he would study the contract to determine if that is correct. "In 1997 American Fork signed a contract with the CUP," said Leonard. "They agreed to take 2,095 acre feet and to take it within 10 years. We are obligated." Cost estimates for that amount of water run over $3.3 million, he said. If American Fork decides not to take the water, other communities are anxious to have the option, he said. "I understand Salt Lake City is chafing at the bit to get that water," he said. Council member Keith Blake countered that the city should expand its culinary culi-nary system and concentrate concen-trate on making that fit the needs of all residents. "I would like to expand the culinary system instead of having two systems," he said. "There would be savings in maintenance, operations and not having to dig up the streets. You would have quality water and be able to phase in the improvements as growth occurs." Engineers' estimates for a pressurized irrigation system sys-tem include installing the pipes in the roadways and repaying. Individual hookups to the system would be the responsibility of the property proper-ty owners. o Carlson Continued from front page He went to visit a friend in Idaho and the friend took him to see a neighbor's old tractor. "I'll be doggone if he didn't did-n't drive it right into his living liv-ing room and have it on display," dis-play," Carlson said. "It was a restored John Deere tractor, the 2-cylinder Popping Johnny." One of his collectibles has a personal history that began when he was 9 years old. He had found a mini-bike, mini-bike, a small motorized scooter. "It was missing several parts, including the engine," his wife, LuAnn Manning Carlson, said. He went about collecting the parts and finally got it so it was operable. That Christmas, Santa Claus left him a brand new little Clinton engine. He rode the little mini-bike for years. The Clinton engine, minus the mini-bike, is still part of his collection today. "I collect mostly the engines. I just restore them and stick them in that shop of mine and that's why I don't have any room," Carlson Carl-son said. Three of his friends; Quinn Barton, Dennis Orgal, Blaine Perry and he approached Thanksgiving Point management two months before the county fair. They have displayed their tractors at the Thanksgiving Thanks-giving Point Farmer's Market Mar-ket every Saturday since 25 tractors in all. "They have mostly tractors. trac-tors. Quinn and Blaine have a few engines. Quinn had 25 tractors," Carlson said. "While I was at the fair, there were several people that said they had some (engines, parts) they wanted want-ed to sell." Saturday was the busiest day at the fair, he said. "It was a good turnout, I was surprised. It was a beautiful, fantastic place to have a fair." As a collector, Carlson also used to show his cars in the American Fork parade and car show and in the Lehi parade and Lehi Labor Day Car show. His passion for collecting and restoring doesn't stop with engines and machinery. machin-ery. Carlson also likes to collect col-lect wooden wheels and horse-drawn wagons. Fortunately, his wife doesn't mind at all. "Actually it's wonderful," LuAnn said. "We're collectors collec-tors of different kinds of things. I collect quilts and antique furniture, whatever suits my fancy." She has a 1860s Austrian hall tree and an Austrian buffet, hand carved from the same period. She has several sewing machines and other vintage furniture as well. LuAnn also has a late 1800s silk quilt and a 1913 cotton piece quilt. "He spends thousands, I spend hundreds," LuAnn quipped about their shared interests. "We're both happy with what we do."
