Hanging with Isaac this weekend. I keep coming back hoping I'll suddenly see it like so many have, but so far that hasn't worked. I'll try a couple more times before the deadline.

Almost gave up on this one but the AHA moment was worth the ordeal. Absolutely brilliant construction!!!

Another late start, as we were traveling until last night. Found what seems to be a “first step” while breakfasting this morning, but can’t see the solution yet. It did remind me of when my father tried to teach me about betting on a horse race when I was a child. I was more focused on which horse/jockey had the best colors.

Ashore! Two weeks in a row - a first. Had to speak with an expert on horse race betting to set myself up for success!

Lots of rabbit holes that make some sense, but nothing popping out yet...

After multiple false starts, I finally saw the starting gate open and finished the race at about 4 this afternoon. Whew!

Or in the vernacular, I'm ashore...

I have been staring at this one all weekend and finally cracked it. Hello shore! I would like a glass a water after all the salt water I swallowed on this one.

Embarrassed to say, Maggie and I are raising the white flag on this one. Time to start preparing dinner. Oh well, there's always the next one. Funny, I chased no rabbits on this one, maybe a first for me. Just nothing jumped (hopped) out at me. I look forward to the reveal and the lesson learned.

Brain fog this week. Been in the water since Thursday night, swimming in circles all weekend. Turning into a prune so I'm heading back to the ship to hang out with Issac.

On shore! Nice one! As others have said, kudos for the construction.

I'm at the ship's bar asking Isaac for a rose spritzer. Since I don't know a whole lot about horse racing have decided to sit this one out!

For a more typical Mike puzzle, I have stared at this for some time and nothing is jumping out. As others have mentioned, I don't even have any good rabbit holes to get into. Maybe inspiration will come at the last hour, but I am doubtful. (These are ones that make me feel really dense.)
