We are a very diverse community here, physically spread across the United States and scattered throughout the world. I got to thinking that familiar terms often mean very different things to us. Take "in the valley", for example. Most of us could say that to a neighbor or a stranger in the street and they would know what we were talking about. But it probably means dozens if not hundreds of things to the people in this community. I wonder how many valleys we could identify if a little context was added. Here are three within the US that I am somewhat familiar with:
If one of these is about your valley it should be obvious to you, but can you identify those that are not your valley?
I would love to see statements with context about other valleys you are familiar with.

- In the Valley many people speak English, but everyone speaks Spanish.
- The Golden Triangle in the Valley seems never to get the name recognition of the campuses to the west of it.
- Tule fog can be a nightmare in the Valley.
