I solved Friday morning and forgot to post... been on shore sippin a couple beverages....
Congrats to Matt on another quality meta...and design.

Help! I see nothing!!

Back on shore this week and one of my proudest solves! This, for some reason, feels like one I wouldn’t usually get. Ice cream time!

I'm still drinking with Isaac. Maybe one more cocktail and I can relax my vision and see what I am supposed to see, but at this point I have no idea where to start.

ETA: Aha! Took me less than 30 minutes to see it after posting this. I think reading the other posts here caused me to cast my nets a bit more broadly then I had been, and to see the way to shore. Check, please, Isaac!

Lost at sea.

But giving myself every opportunity to solve up until the contest deadline…

Suddenly saw it. Ashore.

Finally saw it and made it ashore before the snow starts. Bring it on!

I see the theme but I don’t see what to do with it yet that will give me an eight letter word. Fortunately I still have some time to ponder the rest of the puzzle.

Got it!!! Now on the beach!

I think this the closest I’ve ever come to experiencing post-enlightenment!

Saw what I was looking for last night so an easy solve this AM after sleeping off some jet lag --nice to have this one in the bag after some weeks of misses. Make mine a passionfruit sour, Isaac! And don't EVER forget that that is my pour!!

Alas Mr. Gaffney, I bow to your cleverness. Once a year, you defeat me. This is the week.

Guess how many bunnies in the jar.

Lol!

Crazy weekend here, so just got to puzzle this morning. Based on these comments, I’m both intimidated and determined. But so far, nothing. May be asking for a nudge.

Did not see it coming...just kept plugging and then, "THIS can't be right...oh. Maybe it can."

Good Sunday morning muggles. I hope your NCAA brackets are proving resilient. There are no major (#1 or #2 seeds knocked out) upsets in either the men's or women's brackets - yet.

Good luck winning the mug and don't forget the 8 pm zoom Last Call tonight.

Solved the grid but can’t get anywhere on the meta. Would love a nudge, if anyone is willing

Solved- brilliant construction

Having Sunday brunch with Isaac. The mimosas are so good, I doubt I'll leave the bar today.

Now I see what you all mean - a brilliant Gaffney indeed! Ashore.

A nudge or two please? I just don’t see anything!! Thank you!!
