I took my time getting to shore,
Watched the gulls, heard the vast ocean’s roar.
Keep your breakneck-speed race,
I prefer the slow pace.
And that’s why I’m here on page four five.

I was actually having a good time on the boat, but Isaac told me I had a few too many, so I had to come ashore.

Still ponied up to the bar. I see something that must be (part of?) the mechanism but only get gibberish. Wah.

Update: see below. Am ashore.

Loved this movie! Watch it with our sailor son but he generally stays in view of land

I'm with you. Maybe a Zoom meeting sometime Friday if fellow Muggles are in a similar strait. It seems very close for me...but I don't see it.

I believe I am ashore though I am going to wait to submit as I want to make sure I'm not missing something.

Ashore! This was a good confidence builder - I haven't even been close for over a month. It's nice to finally solve one!

Ermagerd! Solved the puzzle, then had a brainfart and submitted the wrong answer. Everyone moves up one space.

I made it to shore. That was a cute one. I'll take an Interboro Baroness Baltic Porter, and then a nap.
