Bill Ball was born in Oakland, California on June 21st, 1915, but since his parents moved to Wheatland before he was a year old, he always considered that small farming community his hometown. Wheatland, population 500, forty miles north of Sacramento, was an ideal place to grow up. With fields, pastures, woods, and the Bear River close by, plenty of adventures could feed the imagination of a young boy. A deserted cabin discovered in the woods became a castle for Bill and his 11-year-old pals. They learned to swim in the river, drying off on the warm sand bar, then seeking shade under the willows. Chores included lawn mowing, hedge trimming, wood gathering, or helping in the machine shop and gas station. Attending high school during the Great Depression, Bill saw first hand how Wheatland residents struggled to maintain a decent living. Graduating in 1933 with a class of fourteen ended what had been an idyllic adventure and it was off to the big city, Sacramento, to study engineering. College opened up a brand new world as he studied descriptive geometry, calculus, land surveying, and mechanical design. Bill’s talent for music found expression in a dance band, where he played saxophone and clarinet. After completing the program in Sacramento, Bill moved on to Berkeley to attend the University of California, furthering his engineering studies and still playing the sax. Spending summers working survey parties and having part-time design jobs prepared Bill for his first post-college career assignment. Going to work for the Henry J. Kaiser company in 1938, he took a giant step, relocating to Mason City, Washington where Grand Coulee Dam was being constructed. Leaving a fianc behind inOakland was tough, but the starting salary was persuasive and the opportunity priceless. Thus began a forty-year engineering career that took him all across the United States and around the world. The war years found Bill back in California working for Kaiser in the Richmond shipyards where

Filmed in panoramic Cinerama, this star-studded, epic Western adventure is a true cinematic classic. Three legendary directors (Henry Hathaway, John Ford, and George Marshall) combine their skills to tell the story of three families and their travels from the Erie Canal to California between 1839 and 1889. Spencer Tracy narrates the film, which cost an estimated 15 million dollars to complete. In the first segment, “The Rivers,” pioneer Zebulon Prescott (Karl Malden) sets out to settle in the West with his wife (Agnes Moorehead) and their four children. Along with other settlers and river pirates, they run into mountain man Linus Rawlings (James Stewart), who sells animal hides. The Prescotts try to raft down the Ohio River in a raft, but only daughters Lilith (Debbie Reynolds) and Eve (Carroll Baker) survive. Eve and Linus get married, while Lilith continues on. In the second segment, “The Plains,” Lilith ends up singing in a saloon in St. Louis, but she really wants to head west in a wagon train led by Roger Morgan (Robert Preston). Along the way, she’s accompanied by the roguish gambler Cleve Van Valen (Gregory Peck), who claims he can protect her. After he saves her life during an Indian attack, they get married and move to San Francisco. In the third segment, “The Civil War,” Eve and Linus’ son, Zeb (George Peppard), fights for the Union. After he’s forced to kill his Confederate friend, he returns home and gives the family farm to his brother. In the fourth segment, “The Railroads,” Zeb fights with his railroad boss (Richard Widmark), who wants to cut straight through Indian territory. Zeb’s co-worker Jethro (Henry Fonda) refuses to cut through the land, so he quits and moves to the mountains. After the railway camp is destroyed, Zeb heads for the mountains to visit him. In the fifth segment, “The Outlaws,” Lilith is an old widow traveling from California to Arizona to stay with her nephew Zeb on his ranch. However, he has to fight a gang of desperadoes fir..

these people would then take your picture and you would look like you were standing in a saloon or some where right out of the old west.who were they and r they still in business ?

I don't know about one particular company, but there are probably hundreds of these kind of studios all over the U.S.
Usually in "old west" style towns like Tombstone, AZ, Durango or Telluride, CO, Eureka Springs, AR, places like that.
Tourist hangouts are your best bet.

I am a professional early thirties engaged female, I like to have a good time, love to shop, comedy shows, nightclubs, art, music, I love it all; please help!

My suggestions apply if you are staying downtown. If you are staying in a suburban area like Rancho Cordova or Folsom, these suggestions are going to be a bit far, particularly if you don't have a car.

Shopping at malls is pretty typical around here. For a more unique experience, shop midtown: J Street between 22nd and 28th (roughly).

Visit Old Sacramento at least once to see a recreation of Gold-Rush era Sacramento with touristy shops. There is a comedy club there.

For art, the Crocker Art Museum usually has about 3 different galleries catering to different tastes in art. I like the Golden State Museum – it has a new "California Hall of Fame" exhibit. If you are here on a "Second Saturday" all the art galleries are open in the evening and the streets are quite festive.

Pick up the free "Sacramento News and Review" for more nightlife / dining suggestions, as well as the Sacramento Bee's Friday "Ticket.

Lots of unique restaurants downtown and midtown – it would be nice if you could find someone to go out with. On your own it's not always very fun….
