It continues to snow at the website www.southvalleynetwork.com.  Weather and webmasters agree that this trend will continue until the end of the month. While it is unusual for websites in Gilroy to get snow, no delays or complications are predicted.  Authorities recommend wearing appropriate clothing while surfing SouthValley Network and avoid throwing snow balls at strangers.

The South Valley Network has gotten a makeover. Come check out our new look.

The Garlic City Fun Fun 2010 was yet again a success. After a two year hiatus the cars came roaring back in all their gleaming glory and we have the video to prove it. Take a look at the good time had by all .

This weekend I stopped in at Sarah’s Vineyard on 152 Hwy just outside Gilroy proper. This is truly one of the hidden gems of South Valley. Along with their award winning wines this is a facility that includes a pizza oven, bocce ball, picnic tables, patio, live music and manicured grounds. 

The 2010 Garlic City Fun Run custom car show in Gilroy is back. After a short hiatus the Gilroy Downtown association along with it's sponsors  are continuing a tradition that warms the hearts of gearheads up and down our great state. In 2008 this event hosted over 300 cars with live bands, food booths and of course some tasty beverages. Unfortunately 2009 saw none of these chromed, flame adorned, vehicles cruising through the streets. This year however we are much luckier the Garlic City Fun Run is back and the exhaust music will once again vibrate in your chest and rattle near by windows as they parade down Monterey St. It has been a great event in the past appealing to the whole family and serving as the official warm up to Garlic Festival. I have dug though the video archives a re-posted some footage of years gone by in our video gallery. Check it out to get a glimpse of what to expect at this years Garlic City Fun Run. I can't wait to see you all there.

This time the wine stroll was in downtown Gilroy. Fifteen different wineries were involved serving various vintages. All in all a very nice event. I have posted a few short video of the day with more to come. I'm just wondering out loud, does Hollister have a wine stroll? I will check that out as sipping a local wine is always fun to me. 

Check out this time laspe of Morgan Hill

I was lucky enough to stumble upon the downtown Morgan Hill Wine Stroll over the May 1 weekend. In reality I was on a mission to put my video camera fresh from repair to use and put it threw it's paces.  My intent was to shoot for a hour then go back to the studio to check my cameras performance. That plan soon fell apart and I was on a journey meeting people and capturing the flavor of the day. While side stepping smiling crowds with wine glass in hand my ears perked as pleasing notes of a female guitarist filled my ears.  The guitarist turned out to be Aprylle Gilbert and I settled in and adjusted my focus to try to capture her energy and tune. Here is what I captured that moment in time. http://www.southvalleynetwork.com/index.php?option=com_hwdvideoshare&task=viewvideo&Itemid=3&video_id=87
