Clarion at age 29. He lived until age 32 1/2.
He sired 27 Morgans and 2 by mares of other breeds.
He was a joy to own, always a kind and gentle horse.
His get went to people who wanted a good family friend for trails and some sports.
I rode him on our trails and dirt roads, sometimes with geldings, sometimes with mares, and sometimes with Dave riding Clarion's son, Zebulon who was also a stallion. Clarion was always well behaved as was Zebulon.
It was a hard day when I had to let him go due to old age taking the joy out of his life. My two best friends came over as they also knew him and we fed him carrots until the vet arrived.
{I just noticed that there is another horse behind him. You can just see his head down grazing. That must have been Beans, a gelding.}
