Mimi and Beryl are Plum's two fillies by Finn. Mimi was born in 2004 and Beryl in 2005.

Mimi is going to live with her new owners Helena and Barbara in Southern Vermont in the spring. Beryl is doing very well in school . She is learning her ground work well and will soon be ready to ride. Mimi was named after my Aunt Margaret's connemara mare, Mimi. Beryl was named after Beryl Edie. The story is as follows. In 2005 I took my 4 year old gelding Crispin (Finn x Ting), to the Region 1 Connemara SHow in Woodstock,Vt. It was his very first show and he won the newly awarded Trail Class Championship. This championship was given in the name of Beryl Edie who had done so much to promote the connemara pony and in particular had been the driving force behind the trail class at the show. She considered, quite rightly, that the trail class was an important class for the connemaras as it showed off all the wonderful abilities and the fact that they can indeed, Do It All. Beryl was born a few days after we returned home from the show, so still high on Crispin's wonderful performance, I named the filly after Beryl. Beryl, the pony, has a wonderful temperament and nothing seems to faze her, so perhaps she will also the award one of these years!

Hamish

CARAWAY HAMISH
Irish Park Caraway Finn x Fabe’s Sneakers (TB)
2005 15.3 bay gelding.Upper level event prospect. Hamish has it all. Bloodlines, temperament, boldness, a big walk, suspension in the trot, a balanced canter and a HUGE gallop. To support it all he has good bone, straight legs and big strong feet, and as a special extra he has that 'in your pocket' temperament

Stonybrook Donovan

Here are a few photos of Stonybrook Donovan.

Donovan is by the Oldenburg stallion Gatsby and out of my blue eyed cream connemara mare Stonybrook Irish Creme. He is a very handsome colt, born June 2007. He will certainly be horse size, maybe 16 hands and will be golden dun. His free movement and kind temperament will make him an ideal sport horse and he has the potential to go far in any discipline.

Hi everyone. This is my first blogging experience, but a friend who has his own blockspot site told me about it so here I am, giving it a try.

I plan to put up photos of my ponies, and other animals, and new information, which does not appear on my web site.
