Ashore (I think ).

[shays]

On shore!

[ship4u]

It's always great to see everyone on the Friday Zoom! Have a great weekend everyone!

Looking forward to retirement 6/30/24 for several reasons. One is the ability to join more of the Friday calls!

Congratulations on your retirement! I look forward to seeing you joining us on Fridays!

Strange puzzle for me. Never finished the grid. Too many internet searches for clues far afield of data in my noggin.

However, the solution was a little too obvious to me (but I did need to search it to confirm), without even knowing the dc metro or caring about high school football.

Happy John Sterling day everyone.

...and in honor of 4/20, I think I'll have a big fat...



...smoked salmon.

[LuscombeDriver]

Done and Done. Ashore.

[BreeZynCO]

Ashore. It's a first--I think. I had the meta before finishing the grid.

Good Saturday morning muggles

Isaac's bar remains empty and the tenders have brought 225 muggles to the shore from around the world.

On the shore are

And let me know if I have missed anyone in the crowd.

[caf.caf]

Ashore!!

[moron]

Ashore after a long drought. Getting back into it and this weeks and last weeks have been real soft balls. I can't wait for my developing overconfidence to get swatted down by some insane enigmatic meta next week. Fun concept!

[BetterMonday]

Onshore!

[Annabelle]

On shore this week!

[IHeartMusic]

Ashore!

[meowmiao71]

Got to it late due to work, but a very quick solve for me!

[Charmin]

Ashore.

[PapZ]

It took me a while, but I'm on shore! Lone Star Beer, please, and give me the bottle cap so that I can solve the rebus.

[sjm]

Ashore!

[KrisHendo]

Oklahoma girl here but I’ve never heard of this town before. Need to go visit! I’m toasting with a Ranch Water. Cheers all.

[muggleunity]

Ashore with my daughter. Yay!

[dk letter]

Count me ashore as well!

[Nlobb]
