On the packed beach after many weeks drifting asea.

Glad to be back on the beach, but more relief than victory after a long drought.

Ashore! I had the right mechanism earlier today but was missing something and so was stumped. Happy to say I worked my way out on my own! Looking forward to spending the evening with ergcat and maybe a glass of wine?

I am ashore. If I win the mug this time, maybe I'll fill it with nuts.

I thought I was on shore, but now I'm wondering if I found this alternate answer instead.
I'll have to look it over again before the zoom call to see if I can find something I like better than my current answer.
I am on your camp, sorry beach, and the answer fits well with the title. After all there is a better chance to get a Rabbit mug than a wsj one, so I went with it

On vacation in Nashville, enjoying some great food, music, and drink. So got a late start but a quick swim to the crowded beach. Maybe I'll open up a bottle of 8 year Peg Leg Porker I picked up at their tasting room today. Fantastic stuff!

This sounds like an intriguing rabbit hole. I had a few possibilities, but only one I felt made the right word. Hm, maybe I'm the one on the wrong beach.

Wasn't able to get to this until today, but believe I'm on the shore.

Anyone else catch the error in the clues?
