Golden Lily, Nordic Tug, 42-92

Our tug is named after our adopted Golden
Retriever, Lily, the REAL Golden Lily.

The fall day that we decided to buy our new tug, a golden lily bloomed at
the top of our dock.  It was the last bud left on the golden daylily plant

We are both members of the United States Coast Guard Auxiliary,  
Flotilla 24-08, Clinton, CT. Golden Lily is an operational facility.

We adopted our Golden Retriever, Lily, TDInc, from Sunshine Golden
Retriever Rescue in August of 2005, after our 12 year old Golden, Polly
CD, CGC, TDInc went to Rainbow Bridge. Lily was an owner surrender
from Mississippi and is a great "crew" member on our boat. She is also a
registered therapy dog.
