Swam randomly in circles last week; calmly glide to shore this week on what.. could be... just as difficult a meta. That’s why we keep coming back.

On shore.
Took longer than it should have given my background.

Started late but made it to shore after a quick swim. Liked this one.

So glad this one was easy (for me). I'm moving this weekend and have a LOT on my mind. On shore. Far away from y'all. That's me in the corner. That's me in the spotlight. Losing my religion.

Ashore. I learned a new word - 65D - had no idea.

On shore with minimal torment, after getting absolutely nowhere last week. Nice to see that the tiki bar is still going strong - I was getting bored with Isaac's drink recipes!

on the boat, being tormented, but have a path and making slow and steady progress.
printed another copy because my first one was getting messy.

and, just like that, saw that I was making it too messy.
Torment is over, solidly on the right beach. Where's that rum & shave ice stand? I'll take a double (while waiting for a week 5 tomorrow)!
EDIT: classic Gaffney!

on shore! probably my fastest time - liked this puzzle but found it a difficult solve due to the themers. I'll take a Moscow Mule, please!

On shore, thankfully, and I learned something to boot

On shore, for sure this time.
First I looked at the puzzle, then I read a few pages here and expected something trickier than it turned out to be. I agree with the 2-star rating.

We asked the artist why
He preferred still lifes to
Painting the nude.

I HAve an idea that makes sense to ME. But now the waters have turned muRKy and my forward progress has stOPped. Perhaps another look later will clear things up.

On shore after two weeks of near misses.
It helped that I found the correct onshore current quickly with no Scylla or Charybdis (or Sirens) to disrupt my boat ride.
