On the beach. Nothing better than the immediate "a-ha!" upon viewing the completed grid the morning after.
Stay well!

On shore…went down a long rabbit hole

Ashore. Clever. A bit of a wrinkle compared to a typical meta - if there is such a thing.
I liked it.

Good Friday morning muggles
A fun meta from Mike. Very clever. A lot of times, I can see how the constructor thought of an idea like this one but what is amazing is that they can take the concept and turn it into an interesting meta.
We have 3 on the ship for now and 134 on the shore.
And as @ship4u aka Don and Cynthia noted above don't forget the 4:30 zoom call. Don has promised me that he won't keep repeating the same thing over and over and over and over in honor of Ground Hog Day. But @Wendy Walker will be there euphorically signaling getting toward or away from the solution. But before they say it, I will - The title, hint and clues are always important.
have a great day.

Ashore! (finally)
Banged our heads against the wall yesterday and then I had an idea in the middle of the night. This morning it all came together. Love the pun!
I may have to add something delicious to my morning coffee until beer o'clock rolls around.

I prefer my kale with a silent K.

That little person in the picture who is parasailing further and further away from the beach--that is me at the moment!

Got it yesterday. Had the wrong answer but then saw the right one. If I got it then the beach will be very crowded.

I'm ashore.
In time to raise a toast to my late brother, who would have been celebrating his 65th birthday tomorrow.

Aha! Very clever, fun stuff.
Ashore and hoping for some sunshine after all this rain.

I had all the right things written on paper, staring at me, but just couldn't put it together. I came back a few minutes and there it was!

Tore through the grid to come to a screeching halt into a shallow rabbit hole that initially seemed promising. Looking forward to seeing the Zoomers shortly.

I have joined the shore crowd. It's a balmy 50 degrees F. Fortunately they serve hot tea as well as beer!
