Call us on the beach, but since it's been weeks/months/cows-age since we've been able to say that, it's possible my submitted four letter word will end up being THAT kind of four-letter word...
Stay safe all on this long weekend.

Safely ashore, after a quick (?) stop to lubricate my... my... that thing that makes you think.

I’m not sure whether I am at sea or on the beach. I have an answer but feel like more steps are needed.

We are ashore! It took a while and I was trying to make things more complicated than they were meant to be. Hope everyone has a great weekend!

Ashore, and it's actually time for a Negroni (since it has taken me all day to see what I needed to see!)

Check out "The MOAT MEOW Mashup Pack" here. US$10 for 14 metas that don't always abide by the "rules" of the game: asymmetry, 2-letter words, uncrossed letters, who knows. And this time there's a mega-meta! ![Shocked :shock:](./images/smilies/icon_eek.gif)

ASHORE! Brother John and I got it early this morning! Feel for those who get it in a few minutes. I get to spend hours with my brothers (long distance on FaceTime) trying to solve. Quality family time! I just don't like the DING of my phone at night when one of them has an idea!

Finally made it ashore. I was stuck treading water all evening yesterday, then took another look this morning and saw it right away.

Late to the party and took a while to solve but confirmed ashore by @ajk .
I'll just have a Saturday morning nap on the beach.
I just realized it's still Friday. Sheesh lol

PS: If you want help with a meta, PM what you have so I can help without spoiling too much. I've received lots of help in the beginning and I love to pay it forward!

On the shore from Up in the Air (33,000 feet over Greenland to be precise). Traveling this weekend so took a while to get to it, and then took a few different looks to see what I was supposed to see.

Lost at 27A.
Unlike last week, I can't even get started. The puzzle implies a certain place to begin, but nothing I try has worked. There's always the Zoom meeting.
Edit: I'm now on shore after someone PM'd me a nudge, though he hadn't actually solved. I should have gotten it without a hint as I'd noticed something important.
