I finally understand why after 8 years our apple trees have not given us a bountiful harvest. We have been remiss in our duties by not wassailing our trees! Well that will be corrected this year! According to Anglo-Saxon folklore, Asa and I need to bless our apple trees with cider, song, and toast! The […]
This morning a convoy will be leaving a quiet corner of Downeast Maine headed to Arlington National Cemetery on an important mission to deliver tens of thousands of handmade wreaths to remember our fallen Veterans, honor those who serve, and teach the children the value of freedom. Every December since 1992, the Worcester Wreath Company […]
This time of year we are all aware that Santa is judging our every move and deciding if we go on the nice or naughty list. However, who’s watching Santa? And more importantly why does he get to judge us? I’m only asking because after watching a marathon of Rankin and Bass Christmas specials, I’m […]
Christmas is an exciting time for dogs, especially for our brother, angel Lemmy. Recently Mom and Dad were laughing over the time Lemmy woke the entire house on Christmas Eve.

Let’s be honest, most of us won’t be able to be with our loved ones this Christmas, including us. Although Mom is happily decorating, we can tell she’s sad knowing we won’t be able to celebrate with family and friends this year. But one thing Santa and Golden Retrievers don’t like is droopy tails! So […]
Asa is disappointed that they continue to play that song on the radio that gives dogs and bees a bad reputation. You know the song with the lines “when the dog bites, when the bee stings.” We’ve never bitten anyone, and after years of beekeeping our bees have never stung us either. Last year Asa […]
My life is going to the gutters with a moral decision. Do I tell Asa the truth, or should I let the happy little fellow believe Santa and his helpers came to inspect the roof? It all started when Dad decided to give Mom yet another romantic Christmas gift. Something that all women dream of […]
Now that Thanksgiving has come and gone, Mom can finally start decorating for Christmas! As her self-appointed Golden Elf, I will be happily spending this weekend helping Mom to festoon the house from top to bottom with Christmas decorations!
