Abandoned Castles, The Three Musketeers, and Buddy the Dog

Schossberger Castle, built in 1883, is in the middle of a 25-acre park in Tura, Hungary. I don't understand how castles get abandoned. It's a castle.


Alexander Dumas, author of The Three Musketeers (first published in a magazine in 1844 and available in its entirety here), which is a good book to read for acquiring a good vocabulary and improving good communication skills, so I hear.



Buddy, the dog in Full House, was the same dog who played Air Bud.  Maybe we should care more about canine actors.

  2. Castles can be abandoned because maintenance. Maintenanceeeeee.
    Alexandre Dumas doesn't get enough attention anymore.
    I had no idea Buddy was the same retriever from Full House and that's pretty cool.
