On the beach! 🏖️ 🫖

Nothing grabbed me yesterday. After staring awhile this morning, it very slowly began to gel.

Completed the grid with just a wee bit of Google assistance, but now I'm drowning amid all the movie-related clues. Looking forward to this afternoon's Zoom party.. but hoping we don't have any malevolent spirits unexpectedly join the call.

Ashore, after a little bit of course correction from @boharr. Had the right idea, but was just applying it wrong. I also see what the qualms people are having about the solution. But can't see any other option, and believe me, I've tried them all.

It seems I have the same issue as others. I think I am ashore and have submitted - will wait until Sunday night to see if I am correct.

Good afternoon muggles

Amid the high levels of frustration with both those on the ship and the shore we have 13 on the ship and 39 on the shore.

Good luck and continue swinging for the fences or mugs.

I am on a beach and submitted. Hopefully the right one.

Right there with you! Well, not going to Charleston, but definitely with Team Isaac for the time being.
Just arrived in Charleston but still warming a stool at Isaac’s Bar! Will try to get on todays zoom call but that’s about the time we pick up the grandkids at daycare! Oh well , maybe my son will have an idea or two!

Well I came up with a word. Agreeing with others this one is dicey at best

OK, I think I got it, but my thumbs-up on this afternoon's Zoom call will be less enthusiastic than usual.
Good luck, fellow Muggles!

I'm ashore, but I agree with everyone that there was -at least hypothetically- a cleaner way to construct this.

Once again, the Muggles and this blog have persuaded me to save time and aggravation by staying at the bar.

Need to finish the grid. May stop for awhile and enjoy Isaac’s company doing Gaffney’s week 1 and Patrick’s Rows Garden.

An action-packed Zoom has led me to the wrap party on the beach. Time for a 61D - cheers! :D
