There is something in this puzzle that must have been done deliberately but I'm not yet sure how to use it in my solution. I'm afraid that I may have to succumb to using a "highlight-able" method to solve this one. I am leaving it for now and will look at it again later in the weekend.

19A should have been clued: "Like the Braves' bullpen."
(Baseball fans will understand.)

On shore. Simple, yet elegant. Exactly the way I like them.
A TOUR DE FORCE of the meta puzzle craft.

Ashore!
That was fun. I remain constantly amazed at how these things are constructed.

Celebrating with a new Amaro this weekend.
Stay safe all.

ASHORE !! Almost grabbed by a couple of sharks on the way to the beach, and had to return to the ship twice. But the third try got me to the Tiki bar!
So set me up with 3 fingers of Scorpion Anejo Mezcal and a Corona please. A shot for each try and a cerveza to chase away thouughts of those sharks.
!Celebremos!

Room on the AL bandwagon. Just saying.

I got the first two steps immediately, now trying to solve. I haven’t had a great last couple of weeks but who knows…

On shore quickly this week. As a nod to last week I will have a croissant and Café au Lait for breakfast.

Ashore. Pretty straightforward but still elegant.

Quickly onshore... Though I am having fun coming up with other 5-letter alternatives. I'll share Monday......

On shore I believe. Mechanism gives an answer that makes sense but nothing that made me say "Aha!"

A rare Friday solve for me. Happily on shore!
Satisfying achievement to end a (very, very) long work week.

Before starting, I had a guess how this was going to work. Not exactly what I expected, but close enough for a quick ride to shore.

Solved on my computer screen. 8-)
I like red wine. Preferably Spanish.

@MaineMarge , did you feel a disturbance in the Force?
