This is the last week they are having it. It starts when the kids are out of school and runs to the end of July. That is, if they receive the funding to offer it. Hopefully they do, because it's so great. 7/23/25

Completely uncalled for and unprofessional if you ask me. Also, their website said they were "Classic Tuscany Italian", but in reality it looked like a raggedy firehouse on a Wednesday night. We waited forever for our main course and the meats were not cooked to our requests. Parking was terrible, we had to walk half a mile to the restaurant. If you plan on eating at this "establishment", just don't.... Olive Garden is a few towns over.

You may wonder "What on earth is she doing in Caliente?" The answer is simple because my sons…read morefamily has lived in Caliente for the last 100 years. Just simple railroad mountain country people. That back in the day Great grandpa worked for the railroad all week and great grandmother was the singer for a band. In fact rumors go she would make more money in one weekend singing the blues away, then Great Grandpa working on the railroad all week long. Not much is around except the Caliente post office, the train that goes on at all hours of the night. Lots of cotton tails running wild with adorable cows all over running free and happy. At night if you are lucky bobcats will come out and skunks too. Lots of bats and many of the locals have goats and chickens. Oh yes, sure! Did I mention horses? Of course the cowboys/girls have horses. Be careful with rattlesnakes in fact that is what stopped me on my on my tracks looking for a 1860's lost abandon cemetery. That in the late 50's grate-grandpa best friend was berried. I want to say that right where grandmothers cabin is located. I found about 10 homes long ago empty. Those homes all have a story that grandmother can tell us as a story, of when she was a little girl. She remembers everyone's names and what became of them. Two of the homes were on one point where in fact aschool site aka Caliente Elementary but a dork set it on fire. In this little mountain ghost town you will find the best pies and cookies. One recipe that grate-grandmother acquired from one of the cook's back in the day "Tehachipi's prison cookies" those are by far the best cookies I have ever had. Only dirt roads and no street lights so naturally any wild animal is around the corner. Bears and mountain lions have been sighted. So if you decide to visit you are in gods good humor. No gas station no McDonald's no starbucks. The closest coffee house is in Keens the other small mountain town down the hill. Otherwise Tehachipi might be your saving grace. If you like alone time and you are wild at heart like I am. The nights you will blessed with the magic of the milky way. The back dirt road leads to Kern River and that is another favorite stop of mine. If you need to get away from the big city you might want explore taking a dirt road with me and I will show you around. Especially if you are into Rail road trains ghost lost forgotten mountain towns. Caliente is a sentimental family ghost town that has many stories of a lady name Susie that used play the organ and sing in a band. In fact she played and partied with Cesar Chaves! Oh yeah! Babe! My sons family really is for real! to be continued

Established in the 1870s, Caliente was originally named Allens Camp for a cattle rancher and…read moresettler named Gabriel Allen. Later, the name Agua Caliente, coming from hot springs in the area, was proposed and may have been used. This name conflicted with the community of the same name in Sonoma County. With the railroad's arrival in 1875, the shortened name Caliente was adopted. Caliente prospered during Southern PacificRailroad's construction of Tehachapi Pass line. For a time, the Telegraph Stage Line and the Cerro Gordo Freighting Co. also ran through Caliente and its full-time population grew to 200. There were approximately 60 buildings, including 20 or more saloons. Today, Caliente has a population of about 1000. I'm not sure why you would visit. There isn't a town to speak of and just one place to grab a bite, but it's a very cool place that makes you think you're a million miles away from la. And if you like urban exploration, there are quite a few abandoned mills, farms and houses all basically along the one road (littered with cows...no really, you most likely WILL encounter MANY cows on and off the main road) that goes through the town.

Well lo and behold they didn't try to reattempt delivery. I have never had so many problems with a usps office before. If I could request for Amazon to stop trusting them with packages I would.
