Sorry about two posts in one day. We forgot to include a mention of the Granite Mountain Hotshots. You may remember that the city of Prescott lost 19 firefighters in a tragic wildfire June 30, 2013. At the time there was a national outpouring of sympathy. Firefighters from across the country came to the funeral. Some even came from New York City.
The other day and the grocery store we spotted three New York City firefighters.
One was wearing a T-shirt with the wording on the back "Granite Mountain hotshots 19 Prescott Arizona". We spoke to them and thanked them for their service. We were able to get a picture of their T-shirts with their permission.
The firemen in the middle has the number 19 on the back of his T-shirt. Also the words "Granite Mountain hotshots and Prescott Arizona".
We are truly connected in this small world.
