for a very small puzzle it is good

I actually spent a long time on it. I wanted a good demonstration puzzle: very small but demonstrating some of the logical reasoning methods used in bigger puzzles and resulting in a OK picture.

Very Good.

Well if I'm going to do all the puzzles, it makes sense to start at the beginning...

Always fun to do your work Jan!

I'm starting at the beginning too...um...I think there are over 2000 to go. lol

Well, I hope you like my puzzles, because in the first years of this site, I was the one posting most of them, as I tried to get things to a critical mass. I think my puzzles are OK, but several people have come along who make much nicer puzzles than I do.

Jan, I've enjoyed your puzzle very much! I love the detail that you've put into them..the picture almost always jumped right out at you.
I started visiting this site way back when there was only a page full of puzzles, they were mostly black & white, only a couple with 3 or more colors.

I tried to start at the beginning, then I wanted to see what my peeps currently were up to.. So now I jump around quite a bit. It's all fun though.

Your puzzles are very hard but they make sence in the end

I did this puzzle when I first visited this site a year ago, and it was SO hard! Going back to it (now that I'm a member), I can see just how many logic techniques I've picked up while solving these puzzles. It was much faster the 2nd time around!

Great site Jan! It is so much fun to create my own!!
#16: JoDeen Mozena (ozymoe) on Oct 21, 2017
I did this one over today, as a tribute. I miss you, Jan.

I do this puzzle often. I really like that it is the first puzzle everyone encounters at this site.
