Bakersfield is great. Conservative town. I just bought some property on the Kern River just west of there.

Thanks for the ``inside story'' about Bakersfield. Later that same year (1992) business took me to up to Healdsburg by the Russian River. My host was astonished when I tactfully told him I actually preferred Bakersfield. Sonoma County was just too liberal for my tastes. It was also too chilly (both the people and the climate).
