On the third day, everyone loaded up and went up to Pacheco where Grandad Leland had a sawmill and all us kids spent most of our summers. On the way up, we picked up some old tires by the side of the road and rolled them down the mountain on our way up the mountain. Pacheco is about 35 miles from Colonia Juarez. Bill was born up the river, about 3 miles from Pacheco at Grandpa Martineau's sawmill camp. He had built a lumber house there where we spent the summers. Bill was supposed to be born in May while the kids were still in school in Colonia Juarez.....but he refused to be born. And with the pressure from the kids to go to the mountain (Pacheco), she got in a logging truck and went to the lumber house near Pacheco, (Colonia Corrales) where he was born on June 17, 1944 on a Sunday when everyone was supposed to be in church.
