Ashore. Struggled with grid but meta came very fast. Best wishes to all from vacation in hot and sunny Naples, Florida.

Count me ashore. Nice to see something, rather than nothing, which has been the experience for the last three weeks or so. Give me a witch’s brew.

Ashore. Agree with those who found the grid harder than the meta. Totally enjoyed this one.

Wish I looked at the puzzle yesterday… solved in under a minute after the fill…

On shore with strong black coffee freshly ground and poured over…
Thanks to all the muggles in this group. Participating is the highlight of the week!

Ashore. Traveling, late start, and a challenge to solve on the iPhone.
