Every year Rod and Arlene Lema from Michigan come an visit the donkeys. Each year, since 2008, they adopt a different donkey. In the past they have adopted Bono, Mikey and Snoopy. Their last donkey, Tio Mexico, died in November 2017. So they wanted to adopt another "old" donkey and decided to go for Blanca.

This year the Lema couple was wondering if Tio was still alive. YES he is, in his late forties, he is still enjoying life. So instead of choosing a new donkey, they decided to go for another year for this sweet face... Thank you Arlene and Rodney!
