About Bakersfield, California

The town began as a real field owned by a man named Baker, who was instrumental in turning a malarial swamp into a bona-fide town. He’d planted alfalfa, and travelers stopped there to feed their horses. That was in the 1860s. In 1952, the town escaped damage from an earthquake, but took big hits from an after shock a month later. The famous Bakersfield known today resulted from its position as the third-largest country-music presence in the country. Thank Buck Owens and Merle Haggard for that as well as all the other references to the town in songs by artists, such as, The Rolling Stones and Dwight Yoakum. And, just to keep the tourists on their toes, there’s the annual event called California 's Scottish Games and Clan Gathering. Don't take Bakersfield for granted. After all, it’s between Fresno and Los Angeles. So, things can happen anytime.
