We stand seventeen stallions and our broodmare band numbers close to thirty mares. 2006 we had a dozen foals. Our Morgans are healthy, hardy & durable. They are historically known for their intelligence, athleticism, strong bone, grand Lambert trot and excellent conformation as well as their kind, sound minds.

QUIETUDE SEASHORE (Quietude Indian Summer x Quietude Mandolay)

Recently Seashore arrived at his new home in MA with Shelia King.

Hi Susan,
 
Hope all is well with you.  Things are great with me.  Seashore is such an awesome horse and I become more and more aware of that each time I see him and work with him.

 
He is settling into the barn quite well.  He goes out to pasture with our old mare Libby and there has not been any trouble at all.  As a matter or fact before Seashore came Libby would tolerate being out for a very short time – maybe an hour if we were lucky.  After a very short time she would go to the gate and just stand there looking at the barn. Now she is very content to stay out with her new friend, Seashore, and will continue to graze and move around the pasture for hours on end. 
 
Seashore is so sensible and calm when it comes to new things too. Yesterday Nancy and I put a fly mask on him to see what size he needed. The flies and bugs up here are really fierce and the other day when he was out they seemed to be really bothering him. He just stood there as we put this funny contraption on his head and Nancy proceeded to play peek-a-boo looking up at him under it.  He is such a good boy and Nancy is constantly commenting how good and sensible he is.  I think she is really impressed with him and has come to realize that although he is young he is different from any other young horse she has ever worked with.  He is very willing to do what you ask him and remains calm and quiet during situations that would cause other horses to act up.
 
His first day here after he had been off the trailer for a while Nancy suggested I bring him into the barn.  We had been standing in the middle of the driveway and I asked him to walk on…which he did – right on the back of my shoe.  I then managed to get my legs twisted and boom fell right on the ground in front of him.  He just stood there – no problem – I think I even reach out and used his chest for support as I got up off the ground.  His only reaction was to look at me rather curiously.  I’m sure he was trying to figure out what I was doing down there.  The next day I left work early and went to the barn.  I was expecting some people to come to see Seashore and wanted him to look his best so I put his halter on, and took him out to groom him.  It made perfect sense to me to just put him on the cross ties so I could groom him.  He moved his front legs a little at first but once I talked to him and got him to stand still he stood still the entire time.  It wasn’t until later when I talked to Nancy that I discovered that it is not a good idea to put a horse on cross ties by yourself the first time.  I guess it can be quite frightening for them and they and you can get into a lot of trouble.  Oh well, you always told me Seashore and I would be good for each other that he would take care of me as I take care of him.  I become more and more aware of that each day.  I can’t tell you how happy I am. 
 
My family and friends who have seen Seashore so far are just overwhelmed by how handsome he is.  So am I every time I look at him.  I believe they have taken a lot of pictures of him and me but I have not seen any of them yet.  I have the real thing – who needs pictures. But I will ask them to send them to me because I would like to send some to you and Steve so we can get some on the website.

THE WILD & 'WOOLY' FAR WEST ADVENTURES OF JASON BLAKNEY
& SNOWY RIVER BAY KNIGHT, A STALLION SON OF QUIETUDE MERIT

Several years ago you bred a mare for my parents Tom and Diane Blakeney. She was a Morgan mare they had found with sound bloodlines and a price they couldn't say no to.  They bred her to your Quietude Merit. Snowy Creeks Bay Knight was the result. I pulled him from his mother the day he was born in our back yard in Preston County VA. 

Over the next few years we moved to Maine and my parents decided it was time to sell the horses.  Finances were tight, me and my sister Heather were in college and Erin and Evan weren't riding much any more.  When they told me they were going to sell Bay Knight I had to think hard.  I called them back and told them to sell Geronimo my Mustang gelding that I had grown up with most of my life. They could keep the money from him in exchange for Bay Knight. They didn't care much about getting the money they just couldn't afford to feed their horses.  Me and Heather sent money home for our horses feed. 

I was a little unsure of the exchange as Geronimo had been my horse for years and was the horse I thought my kids might learn how to ride on some day.  But Bay Knight has proven himself worthy.  We have spent two summers herding sheep in the mountains of Wyoming together.  He produces very Morgan type foals even when bred to our Arabs, Mustangs, or Curlys. A couple of years ago me and my wife Stephanie were volunteering at a mission on the Navajo reservation in New Mexico.  We left for a couple of days to drive a student to his family in Colorado.  When we returned we found Bay Knight missing!!  We jumped in the truck and drove down dirt road after dirt road searching hundreds of square miles of desert.  A few hours later we saw a small band of horses about 8 miles off.  As we drove closer we noticed a lone horse staying 1/2 mile to a mile away from the rest of the band. Then a horse from the band broke away running for the loner.  I knew by the way it ran it was Bay Knight, and why he had left the mission. He had himself a nice little band of wild mares he won after chasing off the band stallion (the lone horse keeping his distance from the band). 

The wild horses were used to trucks being out on the dirt roads so we drove up nice and easy and I whistled out the window. Bay Knight came trotting up and stuck his head inside the truck were Steph gave him a Granola bar she had and put his halter on. Except for a few cuts and scratches from fighting the wild stud he was fine. Just had him a few nights out on the town!

ARIOSO: 'A HECK OF A BUCKING HORSE'??!!

So, we have established that Lamberts are athletic, yes?  Just thought I'd share this extremely entertaining incident that happened to me and Airy (Quietude Arioso) this week. I have a lot of friends that rodeo professionally.  Anyway, my Farrier came out to trim my mares.  Tim (Farrier) is a PRCA bareback rider.  He and one of my students Justin (also a bareback rider) were standing and talking as Tim worked.  Tim kept going on about how great Morgan feet were, loved the shape, could take abuse and then shape up really well with proper trimming, etc.  Soon the conversation changed from Airy's feet to how flashy she was.  "I mean she would be really cool in photographs with all that long blonde mane."  It was decided that Airy was a "really cool looking horse."  From color we went to conformation.  Tim decided that she was really well put together.  Justin started in on feet and legs, Tim returned that her neck and shoulder tied in really well and he expected that she would make a heck of a bucking horse.  Apparently she should be able to hold up well because of how well she was put together and seemed athletic enough to really be able to buck well if she set her mind to it.  The entire situation cracked me up!!  So Susan, you can add rodeo bucking horses to the list of activities that Lamberts are apparently conformationally suited for  ;)   Too funny!
 
But seriously, both of these make their living with horses and recognize good, sound, usable conformation and it made me feel good that they liked my little Lambert so much :)
