Ashore. 5 more minutes on the exercise bike, then cigar and wine with the Mrs. on the patio.
Good luck to all for a successful solve. If you see that I'm ashore - rare occasion of late - message me if you'd like a nudge. Be sure to include your progress so I can know better how to assist.

Finally had time to sit down and look at the meta. A straightforward sojourn to the balmy shore - vs the rain/sleet/snow that is coming our way from our friends in the midwest.

Looks like a crowded shore. The rabbit will have his work cut out for him.

Ashore! I agree the grid is tougher than the meta.

Glad for a quick and satisfying solve, but now what to do with the rest of the week?? Guess I better get to reading this huge stack of ARCs (Advanced Reader Copies) so I know what books to tell everyone to read! I'll have a nice chocolate red to go with my reading time.

Solved! Looking forward to a Friday night out!
If I don't win a mug, I can always make one... ;) but it won't have the same cachet.

Ashore! Late start, but relatively quick solve.
