What is it like to wait for your father only to see him 2-3 months out of the year? What was it like to see him leave every time? Herminio was 4th in birth order but the first male and therefore inherited the role as the man of the house. My grandfather would spend 9 to 10 months working in California and the remainder at home in Zacatecas with his family. This went on for over 10 years. Herminio at age 16 left La Tetilla to work with his father al Norte but left his mother's side for the first time.
Jump to small town Rodeos.
Herminio loved to colear los toros as traditional rodeos provided la banda with music, the queens to hand out ribbons to the successful charros, and the men who competed in this sport.
Here is a link to an actual rodeo in Garcia de la Cadena showing how it is done. Enjoy!

Leocadio and Julia were two kids in the heart of southern Zacatecas Mexico growing up during the great depression born toward the end of the great Mexican Revolution. Needless to say it was a terribly difficult time for most in that region. Intro to their love story as it pertains to a beautiful legacy that they could never have imagined back then. Join me in their journey as we understand how love really can change the world or at least a family.
Leocadio eventually was able to get approval for his family's green cards and in 1971 they left La Tetilla to venture out into a new world together. For most of them they never looked back. They don't know where this place is anymore as decades have escaped.
Only Leocadio and once in a while Julia returned to this humble but beautiful place in Zacatecas. Home was no longer there for them. Home became Southern California in a fine little home on La Rosa Drive. With the family finally together this became the safe haven for so many travelers as well as the family.
