Joy of a Completed Puzzle: Neuschwanstein Castle

The subject of this puzzle, Neuschwanstein Castle, is one that makes me wish that I could've been a collector of experiences/memories, as opposed to one who collects material items, because this is the sort of place that I would love to see in person. Unfortunately for me, not only was I not made for travel, but with all of the trivial things that I'm constantly being compelled to buy, even if I were the sort who could travel, I'd never be able to save up enough money for a such a trip.

This puzzle seemed like it was gonna be a bit more difficult than usual, and honestly, was, at least until the sky got finished. After that, it was pretty smooth sailing castling. Also, given where I bought this, I really didn't think that it was going to be complete, so it was a pleasant surprise to find that it was.

And apologies for doing two puzzle posts in a row on here. I don't want this to turn into a puzzle blog, but a bout of depression showed up a few weeks ago, and I'm having trouble shaking it. This of course, has made blogging (posting and reading) more difficult, thus resulting in less posts across my three blogs this month (and part of last). I have been working slowly on one of the music countdowns that I teased a couple of months ago, and think that I'll be able to start that within the next few weeks.

Anyway, as per usual, I'll leave you with a better picture of the puzzle, courtesy of the box...

Catching up (and other random musings): Part 2

You'd never know it, but I had intended to send this post out into the world about a week after the last one. Obviously that didn't ...
