202/366: Duke University Chapel
On my visit to Duke University our first stop was by the Duke University Chapel which was constructed from 1930 to 1932, the Chapel seats about 1,800 people and stands 210 feet tall. It was a beauty to see the inside. When I entered there were a group of people getting ready to hear a concert.. I pulled out my tripod and setup my camera and was soon visited by a Chapel employee telling me that tripods are tripping hazards and I must put it away. I used my charm and said I would be quick and that seemed to appease her for a few minutes… I quickly snapped several photos of which, this one is my favorite. It truly shows the age, size and charm of the Chapel.
The 77 Chapel stained-glass windows were designed and constructed over a three-year period by 15 artists and craftsmen, including S. Charles Jaekle of G. Owen Bonawit, Inc. They are constructed from over one million pieces of glass, imported from England, France, and Belgium and varying in thickness between 1/8 and 3/16 inch. The largest window measures 17.5 by 38 feet, and the smallest measures just 14 by 20 inches.
I would love to revisit the Chapel when an event is not on going in order to get more symmetric photos.

Duke University Chapel is a chapel located at the center of the campus of Duke University in Durham, North Carolina. It is an ecumenical Christian chapel and the center of religion at Duke, and has connections to the United Methodist Church. Constructed from 1930 to 1932, the Chapel seats about 1,800 people and stands 210 feet tall, making it one of the tallest buildings in Durham County. It is built in the Collegiate Gothic style, characterized by its large stones, pointed arches, and ribbed vaults.The tower was heavily inspired by Boston College's Gasson Hall, which was built 19 years earlier. It also has a 50-bell carillon and three pipe organs, one with 5,033 pipes and another with 6,900 pipes. A conscious decision was made to place the Chapel at the center of the university and on the highest ridge of Duke University's West Campus. Although plans for a chapel were first made in April 1925, the cornerstone was not laid until 22 October 1930. In fact, when it was completed in 1935 at a cost of $2.3 million, the Chapel was the last of the original buildings to be built on West Campus. It was first used during Commencement in 1932 and was formally dedicated on 2 June 1935. Stained-glass windows and other details were installed at a later date.
Location: The Duke of Wellington, Church Street, Stanwick, Wellingborough, Northants, England, UK.

GI Joe was probably my favorite cartoon growing up. I loved every minute of it, even down to the PSAs at the end of each episode! I made my first Brickarms order the other day specifically to get this helmet for this fig and the rifle. If only it came in green like Duke's rifle did on my old Duke action figure!

The other fact is that Tom worked in the Stetson Library to the right of the picture on the first floor after he finished graduate school..
I believe this is Duke the Fire Station...and bus riding... dog.
I saw this dog ride the bus. By himself. He waited alone at a bus stop and was picked up by the driver. He then stood with his forelegs on the dashboard and looked out the front windshield. When he got to where he wanted he got down and waited by the door. The driver stopped and Duke got out.
Bus riding dog. Saw it with my own eyes.

One of the last passenger-only steamers built for British Railways she worked between 1956-79. Built at Harland & Wolff, Belfast in 1956 she was used as a passenger ferry and cruise ship. She was moved to Llannerch-y-Mor on 10 August 1979 and had a short-lived use as a 'Fun Ship' howver the only road to the ship goes under the main line railway bridge which is about 6ft 6in high! At present there are plans to turn it into an open air Art Gallery hence the graffiti painted on the exterior. The interior is said to be in good condition
