Not only she was able to put him back to sleep and not fussy but you might learn a thing or two, as did we. She is very gentle, caring, and thoughtful about not only our baby but our needs. My husband took a nap the whole time, he loved it. 10/10 would recommend to my friends and family. Jackie, Nick and Hudson PS- will update with pictures once i receive them

Even passing by you feel as though an upscale vendor from the big city has devised a sudden pop-up-shop. As a small-town-convert, I yearn for special places like this photography studio. The fact that Yari is a true progressional with seemingly endless patience and care for her craft is the true shining star. For all portrait, family, child, infant(!), wedding and other photography needs, Yari M Photography is clearly the gold standard. We stopped in for a last-minute Christmas mini-session with a very flash-scared-squirmy-toddler. The shots turned out miraculously amazing despite our child's apparent commitment to ruining our Christmas card dreams. There's simply no beating this business! Check her out and become a life-long customer as I certainly have become.

It was a Sunday afternoon and it wasn't busy and I asked about the prices which are 33 bucks per hour up to six players. We only wanted to play 1 game but they will prorate it once you start the game. The 2 of us quickly bowled a game and I went up to pay - it only came out to 9 bucks. Now that's more like it and we had a fun time.

Desperately seeking a place to rest for the night after a long day at Death Valley, we thought we…read morewere heading to Kernville to sleep in a nice hotel by the river. Pulled over on the way there to check what the hotel options might be. Prices were about $155 and Kernville was still a good 40 miles more to drive to. Just curious, I decided to check Yelp for what kinds of motels might be nearer. Hurray, a five star reasonably priced one! I called and they definitely had a room for us. Some things we love about this motel: Fridge and microwave, so we were able to heat up some food we brought for dinner, and also keep our drinks cold. Proximity to the Mexican restaurant next door, also highly rated on Yelp. We'll be hitting that for breakfast. The fact that it cost one third what a room in Kernville is going for, and it was six miles from me instead of forty! It has a bathtub. Much needed after the drive through the desert. The gorgeous dog who made eyes at me at the check in counter.

Even in Northern Afghanistan, because at least in Afghanistan you'd EXPECT the motel to be, uh, rustic. But by virtue of this place being in California AND being this bad, I proclaim it "The World's Worst Motel."

Trona Highway Safety Rest Stop is located...wait for it,...... in Trona,California…read more It is a typical rest stop we find in the California desert. This one has shade, a bathroom, and alot of billboard showing the interesting history of Trona, the mining that goes on , and the Searles Valley and lakebed. It can be quite windy, and given its desert location, it has austere landscaping that blend in with the surrounding valley. It is worth a stop to perhaps eat something purchased at the excellent TIS General Store just down the road, stretch you legs, and bone up on the local history
