Got it!!! (That's my 26D) For me, one of those rare "see it happening" while filling in the grid puzzles.
Happily on shore.

Solved. Tougher grid but I was locked in on the meta early.

Got it, on shore, nice one, 100% click. Grid not completely easy.
(Post-solve edit: upon reflection, there's an extra layer of elegance to this that I didn't appreciate at first in my haste to get onto page 1)

On shore! Nice puzzle!
I've been barrel-aging a couple liters of Manhattans for a week and a half so far. Might be time to check the progress.

On the beach with a margarita. The cabana boy is restocking the bar. He thinks the hordes will be descending shortly.
