Are you doing the easier or harder version?
The easier one, lol
You'll get it! Don't overthink it.

On shore. Cute one. Actually had a little more trouble with a couple of grid entries than I did with the meta ... 😜

Harder fill, easier meta. Feel pretty confident about this one.

On shore. I think I'll have plenty of company. Easy grid, straightforward meta, both worthwhile.

On shore! I would be so much better at crossword puzzles if I could learn all of the four-letter European rivers.

I responded first on the WSJ page, so this a duplicate "On Shore" [note to Robert]

Very little conversation over there, so I'll have to get used to coming here for the comaraderie.

Harder than normal grid.
META was not so bad, once started on right path.

Time for some on-shore libation.
Fortunately put one of Al's Guinness(es) in the fridge last night.
