Lay Day Vulcan Osorno

Wednesday offered a break in the regatta action to go to the top of that stunning volcano we have been ogling all week! Even with the “power assist” offered by the ski lifts, there was some steep vertical to get our heart rates up! It was a wild moonscape of lava seemingly in the sky. It took about an hour and a half from the venue, but was well worth it! We traveled with old friends Steve & Janet Callison, Maureen Mitchell, Doug Nugent and his daughter Amelia.

We then hustled back for an “Asado” (BBQ) of lamb, chicken and beef seasoned with the local spice blend called merken at a club down the lake a bit, hosted by the regatta. Well deserved tributes were given, but none so deserving as honoring Jerelyn Biehl on her retirement from SCIRA after 32 years!Lue lisää
