Ebony's Bad Company "Beau" by Ebony's Masterpiece...

Ebony's Bad Company "Beau" Born May 24,1978 died October 26, 2004
Ebony son of the great Tennessee Walking Horse Ebony's Masterpiece was born raised and trained on Golden West Farms of Ontario California He did not make show horse so was sold in the plantation barn to Middle Ranch here in the East San Fernando Valley he was a gift from the owner's daughter for his birthday. I bought him 15 years ago he was age 11 and had just been gelded. He lived at Summerhawk Ranch where I boarded my then two TWH's Go Boy's Stroker, and Ebony's Bad Company.

We came to be experts in the Hansen Dam area with it's many, seemingly never ending trails. Stroker, Ebony and I bought Walk'n Y Ranch here in Shadow Hills located in the East San Fernando Valley Los Angeles County California. It seems like yesterday when Stephen and I rode Stroker and Ebony home to the new little ranch. This is where Ebony settled down to teach every one of my friends and relatives how to ride. He was patient, kind, and smarter than all of them and once in a while to spirited. He was black the way black was meant to be. With a white blaze and one white sock. He had many facial expressions to let you know horses truly can talk. Beau was a real entertainer just bursting with personality. We never went out on trail, he with his long flowing mane and tail, that we did not get a compliment. He had that high steppin' natural gait holding his head just right to take your breath away. As pretty as a picture with black and turquoise tack that even the tacking/grooming police would have applauded. Today Ebony and Stroker once again met over the rainbow bridge to wait for me........tanya..
