It is just as small as other pingbacks. Thank you, again, Tish. I need to have breaks from computer on weekends, cause I have to use it for many hours during the week and it takes time before I see your responses.

Love your goat. I think he’s smiling. Oddly enough, I took this picture today and did it in black and white because black dogs somehow come out better in monochrome.

Thank you, Lynne. Yes, ping-backs are rarely enough, that’s why I always say to leave me the links bellow. Besides, I am not one of those challengers that does not display links to the entries or who avoids to look at the participating posts. And of course if one wants their post seen and commented, the logical thing is to first comment on the challenge post. Also, you should check out your spam folder. Many comments have ended up there lately.
