Have you been to the Gilroy Garlic Festival?

Even though I have lived in the area (within 60 miles) my whole life, I have not. In 2008, we moved to Morgan Hill, which was 13 miles away, and then we moved to where we are now, which is 4 miles away, yet we have not been there. :oops:

There was a shooting in 2019 where three people died and many were injured. Then Covid hit, so 2020 was cancelled. In 2021, they did a "drive-through festival." In 2022, it was cancelled permanently. Now they're planning on doing it this year at a new location and are limiting it to 3000 attendees per day.

One of my coworkers tried a couple times to get me to go when I was working for GBLX, but I never managed to find a convenient excuse to be in SNV the weekend it was happening. She did bring me dried and jarred garlic though, which was nice. :)

I learned something new! Kind of embarrassed, 'cause I spent a lot of time in Sunnyvale. :oops:

Honestly, I'm not sure how widely that is used. Telcos/isps/datacenters use it and that's how I learned it. Beyond that, I'm honestly not sure. And everyone I would reference it to is in some sort of tech related field and dotcom methuselas, so my sample pool may be tainted. :p

Normally it's related to the airport code, even for DC's, but That's SJC or I guess NUQ for Moffet.
 
I saw this and thought of you!
