[higgysue]

I’m on the shore!

[DanA]

On the beach!

[hcbirker]

On shore!

[BarbaraK]

Fun meta. I’m on shore

[sharkicicles]

Ashore. Fun one.

[oldjudge]

Ashore with a Guinness in hand. Now back to the Madhatter.

[boharr]

On shore. Need something to warm me up. A bit over a foot of snow and very cold. Brandy. Top shelf, please. Maybe it will help with madhatter's Meow.

[joequavis]

Phew, got it.

[Homer Buckle]

Got stuck at first, went away from the puzzle, and got ashore rather quickly.

I went to Fleeting Image for the .puz version as I have been doing every week. But this time I got a "page is not available" message. Has anyone here had the same result or is it just me? Is a .puz aavailable anywhere else?

I'm on the beach, after visiting a few rabbit holes, but after I cleared my mind the solution appeared.

[Laura M]

On shore! Took me a while to catch on.

[Toby]

Solved. Fun on a snowy day.

[gdshort]

Ashore, beer and poker tonight!

[Schmeel]

Ashore.
I finally figured it out. I was chasing rabbits and just couldn't stop.
Considering local time here in Israel - I wish I were in bed by 9.

I have mentioned before that Dom texts me “HMD” (Happy Meta Day) on Thursday mornings, and tries to use the previous week’s meta in crafting the text. I’m not sure I can make this format properly, but I’ll give it a shot:

On shore. First time that I've been as early as page 2. No Snow in Mississippi (of course), but supposed to go down to 29 tonight. Got to go out and cover up some plants.

[LesY]

Solved.

[ChrisKochmanski]

Lazin' away on the sunny shore (alas, only in my mind).

Done here. Back to MEOW.

[Wendy Walker]

I have AN answer but I'm not 100% sure it's the right one. Tired from shoveling heavy snow -- great exercise! There was so much snow I couldn't open the back door this morning.
