On shore, after a brief false start. Merlot sounds good to me, too!

Safely in the sand. Might have gotten it earlier, but I'm supposed to be watching my grandkids in the pool. I think I see most of them... so Guinness me please.

Ashore! Another solid puzzle from Mike.

Think I got there through an unintended path, that isn't really a path but...in any event I'll explain later.

Week 5 MGWCC tomorrow = buckle up!!

Is "most" - parts of all of them or all of parts of them.

I will "sound off" as being present on the beach! I hope all my fellow Muggles are doing well.

On shore. Liked this one. It's hot out, so I'm going with a Harpoon UFO. Enjoy the weekend, all.

Onshore, keeping my post-ADOBE streak alive, anyway.

Got it ... but I was seeing absolutely nothing for a while there! Clever one, Mike!

I was hoping for a reasonably quick WSJ this week so I could clear my meta deck for week 5 MGWCC tomorrow. Mike delivered.

On shore after one initial error. Could be a couple tricky bits here depending on what people know.

Solved. But almost made a fatal error.

On the beach. With a margarita. One of these days I’ll even get a tan!

Ashore. I actually came up with 2 solutions but I submitted what I believe to be the more elegant one.

Done and I guess I'm done. Going to ponder it a bit before submitted to see if I can increase my confidence level to 100%

Found several tempting rabbits but nothing so far. I'm going to put it aside for awhile. Oh, and thanks for the 29 down Mike!

Got off to a late start and the grid took me longer than usual - no clue on the meta yet.
