🏝 That was fun - a bit meatier than usual.

This seems like a 100%er to me; not sure where uncertainty would come from.

On shore! Made it too hard on myself when I first looked at it.

On shore! Nice!

Edit: Just read earlier comments, and it felt 100% and neatly tied up to me...

That was beautifully twisty! Wendy, I love your plump raccoons. I’m on the beach. The cabana boy is very happy!

Not on shore yet. I'm seeing what I think I need to see, but I'm not sure how to translate it into a six-letter word. Still working.

Like others, I have an answer that I think is right, but it's not quite clicking.

Made it ashore! Not a direct route but finally found the path. Great one by Mike!

Ashore - whew! I thought that was going to be easy, but it kept eluding me! Finally tracked down the right path.

Classic and clever, with some rabbit holes just begging to make trouble. We are safely ashore but the Monday after-action review should be fun.

GAH I have part 1 but can't get part 2... I'm sure I'll either get it in 5 more minutes or never.

Once again with Isaac on the boat. Quick grid and a then a brick wall.

I'll try to recall my chord progressions tonight after a couple of glasses of Mollydooker.

I am still on the boat, but our car is off of this boat at the port and we pick it up tomorrow (sorry -not- Hertz):
