If you're a rocker of music, then Tehachapi Winery Music Festival was the place to be! The seats were empty because the dance floor was full. People jumped up when they heard their favorite song playing, letting the vibrations move them in such liberating ways, and making connections to each band member. Tehachapi Winery kept the libations flowing with choices of beer and wine, and the bartenders were absolutely attentive to their guests. They were all smiles, and rockin' out to the music, as...
Judith Ellen Barnes Rombouts ("Judy") passed away peacefully of natural causes in her home on May 28 in Tehachapi. She had just turned 84. She was surrounded by loved ones in the comfort of her own bed in her favorite pajamas. We will always be grateful for her generosity, advice, delicious dinners and all the times she made us laugh with her quirks and comments. She was truly the family matriarch and motherly to many. She is survived by a large group of family, friends and neighbors who will...

Many of you are aware of my history within NCAA athletics, specifically at Cal State Bakersfield having served as their radio announcer from 2003-2017. Mostly with basketball before the creation of the baseball program in 2009, when I added that sport into the broadcast mix. A few seasons later I was an employee of the university and very connected with the baseball program as they built everything from the ground up. Recently it was announced that Jeremy Beard, the Roadrunners head coach from 2...
I love getting out and about and checking out museums, and Kern County is home to several really special ones. Each one offers a different setting and feel, and each offers a different look at our world – both local and global – and its past. One of the more expansive museums in our area is the Buena Vista Museum of Natural History and Science in downtown Bakersfield. I've been to it before but every time I go, I learn more about the history of Kern County, and the world in general. Day...
