Ashore at last. Not too many rabbit holes, just a lack of time. Or maybe the lack of time prevented me from getting too deep into any false starts… Beer tonight if not sooner!

Chemistry … uh … yep nope.

Although I have experienced chemical attractions a time or two. Magnetic, also.

In this case unfortunately it would be magnetic repulsion.

I found this one easy. Didn't have time for the puzzle last evening but just raced through the grid, and the answer popped almost immediately.

After being way off last week, it was nice to have a no doubter.

The aha moment led to a feel-good chemical! Safely at the shore party.

On shore! Yay! Spent the last day chasing a very obstinate rabbit. Once I forsook him, I landed myself on the right trail. And there it was. Very fun.

Have a good weekend, Muggles

Ashore. Too much going on to devote the time it deserves. Like others looked at it and looked at it and looked at it and there it was!

Much better doing this puzzle than studying for finals. Ashore!

Ashore! Very happy because I was beginning to wonder if I would ever get one all by myself. I have done that before but not lately!

Zoom to the rescue, thanks everyone, I'm on shore! I really enjoyed the discussion of the rabbit holes we each explored, definitely a creative crew! 😁

Enjoyed the Zoom and chemistry lesson this week! With nearly 80 degrees of warmth outside for the first time this year, methinks it's time for a belated Cinco De Mayo margarita to enjoy on the beach. Happy weekend/Mother's Day, all!

Ashore. Once you see "something" you can never un-see it. Bravo Monsieur's Gaffney and Gordon. A lovely duo indeed.

It was great seeing everyone at the Friday Zoom! Cynthia and I look forward to it and really enjoy interacting with fellow muggles. Have a great weekend everyone!
Don & Cynthia

We are always happy to get to know other muggles and help in any way! PM's are always welcome. The next best thing to winning a mug is helping a fellow muggle win a mug!
