After all the Northern California adventures, we drove back inland and stopped in Bakersfield for one last field trip. The Kern County Pioneer Village is full of over 100 historical buildings, sortof like a low-budget Greenfield Village. It was good to show the kids more of the agricultural heart of the state.

shoe shine. Don’t know what the girls are doing with their poses.
Not posed.
As if the Railroad Museum weren’t enough, the kids got to climb up into this old engine and pull the whistle. Repeatedly.
Perfect sunny weather for our last day on the road!
