Ashore. I dislike the web interface so much - kind of didn't mind having to print this out and solve on paper!

Ashore!
I used the spreadsheet, but had to toggle over to the downloaded pdf to see all the clues.

Bespoke nudges available upon request (if I'm on shore, off the couch, in the castle, petting an un-bagged cat, ...).
Let me know how small or large a hint you want, or hit me with a specific question(s).

On the beach! I'll be the one with Tesla, my brother's new 3-month-old puppy. She's an Australian shepherd/German shepherd mix.
