On shore after visits to many a rabbit hole. My first instincts were correct though - just needed to dig a little more.

Back in the game after vacation with no access and a couple of weeks stuck on the boat. On shore this week! Fun with the grid and the meta!

On the ship at this point! It's been a busy weekend and I have just barely finished the WSJ Friday and Saturday and MGWCC grids. I'm going to take a break before trying to decode the metas...

Well, I'm ashore (finally), but only through the good graces of Meg and her cabana boy. They very kindly swam out to where I was going down for the 3rd time, and towed me to shore. Needless to say, no mug for me this week. But, I will have a Moscow Mule to celebrate being on terra firma.

Dragged ashore with the help of nudges. I was never going to get there on my own and was def overthinking this one.

Finally on shore with a gentle nudge.
Hope a Muggle sees a long-awaited inbox message tomorrow.

*Finally* ashore after a kindly nudge. Don't think I would ever have gotten there on my own, despite having attempted something related to the right mechanism at one point (in addition to many things unrelated).
Check out this very cool project by many of your favorite muggles to raise money to fight cancer. You get a fun puzzle bundle and good causes get $. Win-win: Crosswords for Cancer

Grim News......
I was on the beach enjoying a healthy pour of Singlemalt when a fellow muggle stopped by to strike up a conversation. She was acting strangely as I started to describe my heroic solve this week. After the conversation fell into an awkward pause she delivered the bad news. Say, is that rabbit hunting gear in your backpack there? Can I see some proof of admittance sir?
Having being outed as a bagger of an especially clever rabbit take me off the shore party. I am beginning the long slow paddle back to the ship.
