Looking forward to being amazed, but for now I don't see anything.

After a few times coming back to it, I saw it. While this mechanism is rather unique, the first thing I noticed has been key to solving prior puzzles.

I'm skiing at Snowbird this week and I already had a 5.0 beer, the maximum you can buy at a grocery store in Utah.
@Eric Porter Great mountain but not one for beginners. My sister and brother in law are at their condo at the bottom of Little Cottonwood Canyon.

have fun and stay safe.

On shore, thankfully it came to me after a good night's sleep.
Regards to all.

Made it to shore after a nudge from puzzle buddy Jane. She has pulled me from the rabbit hole once again. Ready for a three-day beach party!
I prefer my kale with a silent K.

Saved this for the airplane as I seem to do my best work there but even the thin air has not helped my brain so far! So many rabbit holes and I suspect based on the thread so far I am making this more difficult than it is. I might be joining the zoom call today...

Stay well all

Ashore! Went down a few rabbit holes along the way and then saw it with fresh eyes. Amazing!

Oog. Really hate this stage of the game when you know there is something to see but know you can't force yourself to see it. This is especially annoying as this is supposedly both easy (!HAH!) and clever (...yeah, grumble, I bet....)

On the shore, but I needed a nudge, I'm in absolute awe of all who solo solve every week! And in awe of the brilliant minds that create these puzzles.

Will miss the Zoomers as I'm going to the Carole King musical Beautiful tonight. Have a great weekend everyone.

Wow. This was truly amazing. I swam to the shallows and my buddy EVJ, as usual, dragged me the last step. Thanks Mr gaffney!

Ashore! Team solve with Acarl. She saw it first and I brought up the rear. What an amazing meta this is.
