Which Reminds Me

Yes, having done my genealogical research, I am vaguely aware that my Barth ancestors on my Dad's mother's side of the family, immigrated from Europe in 1850, from Germany. Whether they were supporters of Napoleon or not, is a thought so far from my thoughts as to not merit any comment, given that I have no idea of that one way or the other. And yet all of these allusions to Napoleon are starting to make us wonder why.

And also the castle of Vlad the Impaler stands waiting to be occupied by someone who knows something about that, which makes us wonder who wants to go there.
