Brookstone Morgan Horses

A Head Study

Here is a favorite mare, TeAria, and her son by MEM Chill Factor when we had the camera out for the colt's 3 month birthday.

Congratulations!

We are always happy to introduce new folks to the wonderful world of Morgan horses! But to have new people to the breed select one of our Morgans is just the best.

Congratulations are in order to Chris Ryan on the selection of the talented gelding, Super Shot for his delightful daughter Kendal. This pair will remain under the guidance of Suzanne Stone Evans at Pine Hollow Farm. Watch for their ring debute at NY Morgan Regional Championships in September.

Best wishes to Chris and his daughter on the selection of such a beautiful Morgan. Thank you.

Camp Pine Hollow

It was camp time in July at PIne Hollow Farm. I was invited to be a counselor for some of the neatest young ladies I have met in quite awhile. We had a terrific week!

Peaceful Summer

Innocence of Spring

Who can resist a Morgan foal with their expressive eyes? I sure can not.

Super Shot at WNY

Elliott and Suzanne made their debut at the NY Western District Morgan Horse Show on Memorial Day Weekend. We were very happy and proud of our four year old boy on his first time off the farm. He is going to be a steady delightful partner for someone! Inquires are welcomed on this new face in the Western Pleasure division.

New Foal has arrived!

TeAria a favorite mare at Brookstone has delivered a handsome colt whose sire is MEM Chill Factor. We are very happy and most pleased with this youngster.

From Equestrian, March 2010 Issue

A wonderful suprise was in store for us as we opened the new issue of the USEF Equestrian magazine. We fully expected to read about the wonderful mare, Courage To Lead, that was honored as one of five horses in competition to receive Horse of the Year Award from the USEF. This we did, but not before enjoying the tribute from Katy's owner, Bev Lesher. Thank you Bev for acknowleging the breeder of this world class mare! The Dynamic Duo has brought pride to you and Morgan Horses everywhere!

Farm Days At The Mall

The Morgan Horse is on display and getting much praise this weekend at the Oak Dale Mall Farm Days in Johnson City, NY. Organizers tell us that more than 50,000 people attend this event. Each year I set up a display and invite local Morgan folks to bring in their business cards and sales list. We lay these out along side the terrific information from the AMHA. I use pictures from the AMHA calendar to show off the beauty and versility of our Morgans. The public seems to enjoy seeing all of this.

Congratulations!

We are happy and pleased to announce the sale of Spring Bouquet to Laurie and Bob Sim of Heatherwald in Morrison, IL.

Brrrr Its January!

Happy New Year to all! Winter has arrived and the January freeze is on in upstate NY. Time for me to enjoy other Morgan websits, plan breedings for the spring, and catch up on reading.

BKST Mares In The Autumn

As we changed the clocks and raked the last of the leaves I decided to spend the month of November putting up some favorite pictures from the Brookstone Album over the years. After all, November is Thanksgiving and all it brings including remembering ones family history. So please check back every few days to see what family history is up from our mare herd here at Brookstone.

Pictured is IronForge Evermore flanked to her left by her good friend, Super Issue, and looking on is a daughter of Eve, That Imagene.

BRONZE FOR KATY!

Word has reached us that Courage To Lead was the Bronze Medalist in the single pony CDE World Championship in Greven Germany! Congratulations to Bev Lesher, owner, and Suzy Stafford driver of this wonderful mare.

It was a great day for the Morgan Horse!

Favorite Mares

August is traditionally picture taking time of our Brookstone Herd. Mares are favorites here, and we do have some we treasure very much. This is one of them-- TeAria a daughter of Up Hyre Te N Te and out of a Best Mare at Silver Maple Stable in Missouri, Catawissa Lady Star.

TeAria had a winning show career as a junior mare. She is most pleasant, intellgent, and oh so level headed. TeAria is an excellent athelete and she has an outstanding son by Illegal Motion who is three years old. He is in training at Pine Hollow Morgans with Suzanne Stone Evans.

We look forward to May 2010 and her second foal sired by MEM Chill Factor. I have a feeling TeAria will soon earn our title of one of our Best Mares.

2009 Breeding News

We are so happy to announce that our lovely mare, TeAria(Up HyreTe-N-Te x Catawissa Lady Starr) is in foal to the World Champion Park Harness sensation, MEM Chill Factor! This stallion is by Serenity Masterpiece and out of the winning show mare, Cabot Joie De Vivre (Futurity French Command x Forty Carats). Early May 2010 will be an exciting time for the Brookstone breeding program.
