I'll take the #2 spot. Eight minutes to get there after the grid filled.
The site is just a web page, a meeting place, a clubhouse - it's the group that's special.

I don't have much of streak to defend, so I sent in my answer. Not sure if I qualify as being on shore, because I may have forced my/an answer... (maybe I'll PM the guys above)... but I will take a beer from the Brau Frau.

Crap... While I can easily justify my answer, I just thought of a much more fitting answer... unfortunately, I can't make it work.

On shore. Clever.
Anyone else a bit disappointed that the grid was too easy?

On shore with hardly a look back. Easy swim; Must have swum with the tide. Nice construction!

There seems to be something fairly obvious going on but for the life of me I can't connect the dots. Not sure how much time I'll waste on this as I am in Las Vegas through Sunday.

Well, you know what they say. What happens in Vegas....makes you forget the meta. Or something. Enjoy.

On shore! Already have a cabernet in hand.
I struck out 3 out of the last 4 weeks, so it is a pleasure to be on dry land once again!

Onshore - WOW I made that SOOO Much harder than it needed to be.
Time to hit the Craps table before dinner at Guy Savoy. I am pleasantly shocked that everyone has been mask and social distance compliant so far.
