Site Honor & Les' Tales
Our website was very warmly recognized in 2003 by Southern Illinoisan Outdoors Columnist, Les Winkeler. Always looking for anything Golden, we found Les who joyfully spices up his columns by detailing life with his Goldens Jack and Buck—his comical take on the canine spirit so captivating. Although his articles are only briefly available online, they are included here in their entirety. So, enjoy!

In Your Words
The following are some unsolicited comments from our website visitors and patrons. We love receiving feedback from the many visitors who grace the pages of our Land of PureGold. Through the years we have come to form many special Golden friendships due to our presence on the web. In fact, we have had visitors coming to meet our family in Maryland  as far as Australia and England.
