Denton R. sprinklers 'Down- Under' a, - You've wanted to do it for years, and you've vowed each summer to make good on your intentions. The time has come to go Down Under and make yardmaintenance simpler by installing an automatic sprinkler system. Derek and Traci Habel, owners of Down Under Sprinkler and Plumbing in American Fork, are celebrating their n ew business with grandopeningspecialsduringJune, with specials and weekly drawings. Down Under not only features contractor quality system s by Toro, Rainbird and Hunter, but also brings hands-oexperience to the professional and the alike. Since they opened a little over two months ago, they have already added plants, trees, and bulk re n store into a home center. Sod will also be available at Down Under, with attractive discounts given with the purchase of complete systems. Although the sprinklingsystems have been made available at a peak time during the growing season, they are also currently expanding their plumbing supply department, "We're excited to be out here," said Derek. Their nearest competitor is in Orem, and some items, such as the bark, are currently only availablein SpringvilleorSaltLake. With 10 years' experience in custom landscaping, Derek is able to design systems that meet the specific needs of the yard, accounting for the kinds of plants that are growing in each area, the degree of slope in the terrain, and even the conversion to pressurized irrigation systems. He and his staff are able to provide a variety of services, including recommending contractors, gluing the manifold (the part that contains all of the valves), or showing new users how to install and adjust their systems and their controls. Free delivery and design are included, but the staff is also able to provide additional services, such consultaas trenching and e tions, at reasonable rates. "I know people's needs, wants and major problems," said Derek, explaining that omissions - such as the necessary and strategically placed drains - are a common mistake in the installation process. For contractors, Down Under offers a special area to quickly assist professionals who are already familiar with the systems. Down Under is located at 922 E. State Rd. in American Fork, and is open Monday through Friday from 7:30 a.m. until 6 p.m. and from 8 a.m. until 5 p.m. on Saturday.

Fork Hospital patients Shirley "Boots" Johnson hasbeen voted by her patients at the American Fork Hospital as the "Nurse Who Made a Difference." When Sue Fleming, assistant administrator over nursing at the hospital, announced Johnson's award at a traditional luncheon celebratingNational Nurses Week, Johnson was taking care of her mother in Colorado. She will be honored at the nurses staff meeting June 7. When a nurse is considered a friend, it is a compliment; and Johnson is not only thought of as a good friend, but patients think of her as family. One patient insists that Johnson made her last delivery the most wonderful experience she has ever had. "We just bonded. From the minute Shirley walked in theroom, she made me feel like family. She was like a mom to me," said Karen Marcum from Orem Johnson has a d regularly submits its work to independent auditors for review of its accounting practices, and consistently receives thehighest possible ratings from those examiners. IT'S YOUR MOVE I.Tnhn 1 1 Tl Marv Cartwright Jolley The more specific that home buyers can be when describing the homes they want, the better able real estate agents can be in fulfilling their desires. Quite often, home buyers seek to recreate the feelings that their childhood homes provided to them. In order to separate the emotional experience of those memories with the actual facts, it is a good idea to sit down and make a specific list of needs and wants. In many cases, this list will differ considerably from the features that a childhood home once provided. In any case, drawing u p a needwant list helps home buyers define their priorities and give real estate agents a better picture of what to look for.
