I tried to download the .puz version from FleetingImage and got "can't be downloaded securely." When I told it to download anyway, the file that was downloaded could not be opened. Has anyone else experienced this?

Got it. I expect a crowded beach this week.
There are some Easter eggs in this puzzle, or at least I think so.
Unrelated to this puzzle, I heard this song on the radio Monday and thought of this forum.
I don't wanna fight no more
I only wanna get to shore
O.A.R - Peace

On the beach! 🏖 
Saving a nice spot for Dan!
PS. I really enjoyed today’s NYT by Derek J. Angell! Since becoming a meta puzzler, so often regular crosswords seem more like filling out forms. This one gave me something similar to meta joy!
