Named after Henry Oxnard. The Strawberry Festival is nice.......if you like strawberries. J/K.
Anyway, DoND also did a search at a Renaissance Festival earlier this month or last. I guess they're trying to have a diverse pool.....a different county, Ventura!

Oxnard Strawberries
The Oxnard Plain is well-known for its strawberries. According to the USDA, Oxnard is California’s largest strawberry producer, supplying about one-third of the State's annual strawberry volume [5]. From the end of September through the end of October, strawberries are planted and harvesting occurs from mid-December through mid-July in Oxnard. The peak harvesting season in California runs from April through June, when up to 10 million pint baskets of strawberries are shipped daily [6]. The state of California supplies over 85 percent of U.S. strawberries, with the U.S. supplying for a quarter of total world production of strawberries.

Before we had children, Jeff and I went camping on a beach in Oxnard. It's a very pretty area.

I'm sure it was nice until Darryl Strawberry moved in.

I'm sure this road trip was a very welcome opportunity for all those people who can't make the 60 mile drive to Los Angeles.

:roll:
