The 5th Annual Yarnell 19K Memorial Run was held June 2, 2018. As the event website explains: On June 28, 2013, a cloud-to-ground lightning sparked what would become the deadliest wildfire on record in Arizona. The fire claimed more than 8,000 acres and 127 structures in Yarnell, while taking the lives of 19 members of the Granite Mountain Hotshot firefighter crew. The Yarnell Memorial Run was established in 2014 in memory of the 19 and in honor of their families.

Our photo, above, from race day 2018, indicates the strong community support for this event.

Each kilometer of the 19K race honored one of the 19 deceased firemen. Jeff got first place in his age division and ninth overall.

Proceeds benefit:

The Yarnell Fire District

This Special Rural District is comprised of a 22-member crew, mostly volunteers, three captains and 8 EMT's. The Crew is led by Chief Ben Palm, a resident of Glen Ilah. Since the Yarnell Memorial Run supports the work of local firefighters, proceeds will provide valuable assistance to the department, assisting with training, equipment, vehicle maintenance and personnel expenses. The decline of the tax base due to structure loss has been of great concern to both the crew and the residents.

The William H. Warneke Memorial Foundation

This foundation was founded by the family of William (Billy) Warneke, who perished in the Yarnell Hill Fire. The mission is to "preserve the memory and legacy of the 19 Granite Mountain Hotshots who perished on June 30, 2013; the William Howard Warneke Memorial Foundation will offer support and financial assistance to first responders, military veterans and their families.

The Eric Marsh Foundation for Wildland Firefighters

Eric Marsh was the superintendant of the Granite Mountain Hotshot Crew. Founded by his loving widow, Amanda, this foundation provides support for wildland firefighters, raising money for families who suffer loss due to wild fire service. Most recently, the foundation was able to raise $3,000 to support the families who lost firefighters in Twisp, Washington.

Our plums (Santa Rosa-type Beauty Plums) and cherry tomatoes (this one is a mystery volunteer!) are ripening. Summer is fruit season in the low Sonoran Desert. We’ve also been picking peaches, nectarines, and melons. Our favorite way to eat the fruit is in the cool of morning, straight from the tree, and with coffee of course! This delicious bounty definitely makes the heat more tolerable.

When we planted our Organ Pipe Cactus (Stenocereus thurberi) it was barely knee high. Now, fifteen years later, it soars above us and recently produced its first flower!
