Late to the zoom and found out that what I though HAD to be the answer was not. A second deeper look has now shown me the correct answer.

My sincerest apologies for the page 1 infraction.

Thanks Zoom, as always, for the nudges and the laughs. Always enjoyable

On a sunny shore.
Had the right answer, but for some reason didn't think it was correct.
Thanks to Zoom Room and Wendy for setting me straight. I tend to try to anagram everything, doh!

Solved with the help of the zoom call.
I certainly can't imagine any wine from that city, so it'll be a Pinot Noir from Napa Valley.

I definitely needed the Zoom crew's tireless assistance to keep me from drowning at sea this week.. yikes. Maybe starting the day with a team-building Escape Room activity siphoned too much of my brain juice? At any rate, now that I'm finally on the beach, I think it's time to enjoy some beverages that'll surely use up anything that's left.

Thanks to all and have a great weekend!

Another wonderful Friday Zoom session! Thanks everyone and have a great weekend!

Woo hoo! Congratulations! And this was not an especially easy one. Welcome to the forum

While congrats are in order for making page one, I'm surprised you didn't wait until Saturday to post. Or maybe you'll post something special then?

"[Saturday's date] be with you!"

Thanks, and yes ... look out for "Revenge of the SiXth" in the coming week's Muggle Meta Mondays (MMM)

On shore after pondering for a bit. Now I'm sure.

Ashore with help from the zoomers.

After searching for donuts and eggs in the grid, got pointed in the right direction and solved. Very nice construction

I do so love that Aha! moment. Especially when it comes when you aren't even thinking about the puzzle, but your brain starts assembling things for you! Time for a celebratory moment with a beverage from Scotland.

On the beach! It took me a long while to see this. Not the fault of the puzzle, though. It was due to my having only a passing knowledge of what I needed to see on the first step.

Ashore

Got it, with Zoom crowd's suggestion. Thanks, all!

I was definitely down a deep, dark rabbit hole until the Zoom call pulled me out. Thanks guys, I'm safely ashore now.

Woo-hoo! Probs the fastest I've ever gotten it! I'm ashore. I'll have a Kona Longboard Lager, please.

On shore. Completed the grid on Thursday, but couldn't find a trail to follow. Then picked it up when I came home from work on Friday and saw correct path. Fun one.

I have an answer that makes some sense but I wish it had more confirmation. If nothing else jumps by Sunday I'll go with it. I don't know what you call that - wading in the shallows?

I'll have to try that zoom call one of these days.

I'm currently on the boat, completely stuck on a seemingly empty rabbit hole.

The good news is that simply referencing census reports gives me a 1% chance with even a random "Hail Mary," so those are better odds than usual in my situation.
