Update - 2/3 of the way through

I did this challenge in CCC and loved it. Of course, I completed it late, but who cares!! LOL I did Gleiburg Castle which is one we visited while living in Germany in the mid-70s. This time I'll do another one we visited.
It was just a small cozy palace! LOL King Ludwig built this one and 2 others, including Neuschwanstein.

[Barb]

Cherie, are you allowing us to use *any (major) word in a book title, or only the first letter? I may be closer to being finished than I thought! LOL

It looks like I didn't specify in the original rules so I'll let you interpret it as you like. Use the first word or any word in the title, whichever you prefer.

[Barb]

Thanks Cherie :)

***** COMPLETED 10/28 *****

[Chelsea]

Incredible! I say that because I am yet to finish one challenge.

I noticed you also read "Don't ever get old". When I ordered it from the library, I thought it was a non-fiction self-help book on health! LOL I really enjoyed reading it, though.

Good luck with your next challenge.

Chelsea :-)

LOL Chelsea That must have been quite a shock! It *was a good book, though, and I wonder if there's going to be more books featuring Buck and his friends, or if this was a one-shot deal.

[Chelsea]

I hope he does write more with Buck and friends. I know the main characters, most, are older, but I think he could write a couple more, at least. I hope so, anyway.

*****CHALLENGE COMPLETE 10/25/18*****

[jingles]

You are? Hmmmm.....where should we focus our efforts next, Connie?

Oh - welcome to this challenge! Sorry...I got a little distracted there when I saw, "new spell out challenge". Lol

[Connie N.]

Well, perhaps I shouldn't have said I NEED a new spell-out. More like I WANT a new spell-out.

Jingles wrote: Hmmmm.....where should we focus our efforts next, Connie?

Oh, I'm pretty open, as you know, Jingles. Whatever you come up with, if it's a spell-out, I'll be right there joining in.

[jingles]

Me too, Connie....I don't need a new one, I just want a new one.

I'll have to get busy this weekend and come up with something.

I'm am glad to hear you will be right there with me. I love the company. I used to do them on my own, and it just wasn't as much fun that way.
