Ashore. Wife and doctor telling me to hydrate. Darn: I'll have a glass of water. But at least this week, unlike the past two weeks, I am drinking it and not floating in a boat on it.

Done.

Grabbing my beach spot before the giant cruise ship disembarks. Sapphire martini with 3 plain olives please.

EDIT - Never mind. I didn't see the numbers.
Same here. It seemed un-Gaffneyesque at first. Thanks for the clarification. Fun puzzle.

On shore early on Thursday. Think I'll have a Dogfish Head 90-minute IPA.

Ashore! And as someone who has spent a fair amount of time in Oklahoma, I can vouch for “obscure” 😀.

Ashore!

And by my very approximate estimate (so approximate that this should in no way be perceived as a spoiler for the math geeks), there is approximately a 1 in 167,000 chance that this week’s contest winner resides in the meta answer, and that would be straight up awesome (even though it wouldn’t be me)!

First time ever on shore on Thursday I think. Also 24 days sober today, so I'll take a virgin rum and coke.

Off to a really late start.

Don't get much less challenging than this. Well, they do...

I'll just have a lemonade. It's hot and I'm tired.

Ashore! I appreciate y'all making room for Maggie and me. Thankfully I BYOB'd as refreshments are beginning to run low. I'm having a Hoppenheimer IPA, with a cabernet chaser. Yum!

And, thanks Matt for a fun puzzle and giving me the weekend off!

On the beach. I could have declared two hours ago BUT it took me that long to fill in the southwest backsolving grid from the answer.
