     Almucantar de Syringa
Gorgeous buckskin tobiano colt, foaled in May 2008 at Larry & Maridel Merritt's Syringa Paso Finos in Bonners Ferry, Idaho.  Barn name "Quigley". He is already showing wonderful smooth floating gaits and an easy going intelligence that is worth its weight in gold.

Congratulations to Michelle in Washington on your purchase of Almucantar, aka Quigley.

The above pictures are of Bonito Mirasol's last offspring (since we lost him, sadly and suddenly, of colic in July 06) Read his Tribute  Lacie was born 4/10/07. The name 'Lacie' just came to me as I was kneeling in her corral soon after she was born. I didn't dawn on me, until I looked at Bonito Mirasol's papers, that he is of 'LaCE' breeding. She is a WONDERFUL little gal.   She comes up to us and follows us around. As you can see from her pasterns, she will have a fabulously smooth gait. I just thought y'all might like to see his last baby.    Ellen Knapp
