Traffic/crowds for Fire in the Sky event

Hello there, I'm coming from out of town to your area tomorrow and was thinking of dropping by the Fire in the Sky event. As someone from the bay area I have had the experience of having lots of out -of towners come to local events and make traffic unmanageable, so I wanted to check in with locals on how congested things get at this event. Should I expect it to take hours to get back out? Is there plenty of parking? Do I need to get there in advance to get seats? Should I just watch from afar at another park instead? I'd love to see if any of you want to share any knowledge, thank you.

I miss the old Farm Fresh Produce off of Holohan and 152. Are there any great alternatives in the area?

Me and my family always used to enjoy buying fruit and vegetables there for the ride back home to Fresno. Now that it's seemingly permanently gone, I am looking for a replacement in the area.

Preferably I'd like one that has a good selection like they did, and is located out in the country somewhere.

I'd appreciate any advice or tips on any places to check out

Recommendation for local grocery store(s) in the area?

I know this might sound odd, but one of my favorite things to do is go grocery shopping. I love doing it when I travel and just to also take advantage of local offerings. Since Watsonville is near so many amazing farms, I bet there are awesome (and hopefully affordable?) shops you'd recommend?

Hand tally of votes in 4th District supervisor race underway in Santa Cruz County

Though Nuñez holds a significant lead in the race for 4th District Santa Cruz County supervisor over incumbent Felipe Hernandez, his margin sits less than 0.1% above the majority threshold that’s needed to declare an outright victory this month instead of advancing to a runoff contest against Hernandez in the November general election.

Old Mexican Restaurant (Taqueria #2?)

Hey all, I used to camp with my family at Sunset State Beach in the summers and we used to go to a Mexican spot in Watsonville that was super authentic food and so good. I can remember they sold lengua and cabeza, and they used Oaxaca cheese in their bean and cheese burritos. I remember it being a stand alone, hole in the wall place, very small, lots of windows. I disctinctly remember the #2 being part of the signage for the place. Does anyone have any idea if the place I'm talking about is still open, or what it was called?

Thanks!
