Duke and his Teddy Bear.
Duke has a bit of a crush on him and gets very jealous if I touch or move him.
I think the bear is getting tired of his nightly humps.
At Duke Farms, you’ll find over 1000 acres of land devoted to an ongoing exploration—of native species, preservation and sustainability efforts, and of the area’s natural beauty.
A visit to Duke Farms is an opportunity to experience New Jersey’s native landscape at its finest, and to engage with it however you’d like. Duke Farms is located in Hillsborough on a 2,740-acre property, where over 1,000 acres are open to the public for self-discovery, outdoor activities, and education and research related to ecological sustainability.

HMS Iron Duke is a Type 23 frigate of the Royal Navy, and the third ship to bear the name.
Iron Duke has intercepted several large consignments of illegal drugs being sent from the Caribbean to Europe.
In her only combat mission, she was in action off Libya in 2011, destroying a gun battery outside the besieged town of Misrata. She also fired star shells through the night to illuminate pro-Gaddafi positions for NATO aircraft to destroy rocket launchers, fuel dumps, ammo stores, artillery batteries and command and control centres, whilst also confirming that no civilians were in the area.
Iron Duke was launched on 2 March 1991 by Lady Jane King in the presence of the Duke and Duchess of Wellington. Her affiliated town is Kingston upon Hull, and she is named after Arthur Wellesley, the first Duke of Wellington (the "Iron Duke"). She was the fifth Duke-class Type 23 frigate to be launched for the Royal Navy, at a cost of £140 million.
Iron Duke carries a number of weapons and sensors which make her a multi-purpose combat vessel. Like all T23s, her original design role was anti-submarine warfare, but she can be employed in a variety of roles. She carries a Wildcat Helicopter which can be used in an anti-submarine and anti-surface role as well as for humanitarian and search and rescue purposes. The ship, like her sisters HMS Monmouth, HMS Montrose, HMS Lancaster and HMS Argyll, did not receive the new Sonar 2087 upgrade that other frigates of the class subsequently received. Therefore she has been regarded as a "general purpose" frigate without the more specialized anti-submarine capability of the other eight ships in the Type 23 fleet. However, on the retirement of HMS Westminster in 2024, it was reported that the S2087 towed array from that ship might now be fit to Iron Duke instead, though it remained unconfirmed whether this would actually occur.
Iron Duke was the First of Class fit for the Royal Navy's new Type 997 Artisan 3D, successfully firing her missile system, using the new radar combined with the updated 'SWMLU' Seawolf missile targeting system, in the English Channel.

Despite an unsettled weather forecast, I went to Bonsai bank in Denge Woods to photograph the orchids & butterflies. When I arrived the sun came out, along with the butterflies. Perfect Day.

Visit of the Duke University of Durham, NC, USA. One of the oldest, and maybe the most beautiful place of the city. I also walked in the Sarah P. Duke Garden
Duke Special @Sloan's
Half Eleven in the morning, feeling rough, Duke Special for the second time in two days.
Duke is a flat black Golden Retriever. He likes to dig holes and chase cars! He is a doggie dog. Sometimes he likes to invade my bath by joining in the tub with me. He asks me to come outside all day by barking at the door for me to come out. He is 9 years old. When I battled cancer he never left my side, I call him my therapy dog. I have so many Duke stories that I need to write a children's book after him. Stay tuned
