Gorgeous Brew Day

[klickitat_jim]

Decided to go for it. Blonde is in the fermentor, IPA is starting boil, ABA mash water is heating. I’ll be beat but the freezmentor will be full. I’m not looking forward to bottling day!

On the drive from Bend to the coast there’s a pretty spectacular lava field.  Is that it?

That’s definitely not the Newberry Crater flow; you have to take a road east off highway 97 to get there. Well worth the trip. I see a couple different lava fields on the map west of Bend, so you’ll have to be more specific about which highway you’re referring to.

McKenzie Pass is what I remember, after looking at a map.  Highway 20 between Sisters and Cascadia.

There’s some lava over there. Black Butte is along that route. Big ole cinder cone.

About 30 minutes of boil time left on my ABA then all done! Three batches in one day. I’ll take that as a good day

No, it is more south and a little east of the highway. Huge flow of obsidian, not what we think of lava, this is black glass. On top there are obsidian boulders almost the size of a Smart car.

A ways from there, there was a lava flow with casts of trees, that left round voids down into the lava.

If this works, it is a Works Progress project in the McEnzie Pass lava field.

We went to another basalt rock park somewhere between Bend and Crater Lake that was pretty cool, too.

Edit.  Well that didn’t work and I don’t feel like diagnosing it right now.

People up here like stacking rocks.

Second try.

Reminds me of a toast I heard recently:

Here’s to nipples!  Without them tits are pointless.

There is a hill just North of Yakima that was (officially) named Squaw Tit Mountain.  For obvious reasons they changed the name a couple of years ago.  But nobody remembers the new name - now it is the hill formerly known as Squaw Tit Mt.

Funny.  May political correctness die the ugly death it deserves.

Beautiful spaces you guys have chosen to live in.  Three batches in one day is amazing.  My 2 batch Saturdays are long enough.
