Oh dear… I need a semi-firm nudge please someone? I feel I am so close, but I’ve been staring at it for two days and my eyes and rabbit holes are crisscrossing! (And in my gut I think I know the answer but I can’t seem to reverse-engineer it!)

Cold outside, Isaac's bar is warm. Guess I'll stay here for a bit. Chased 3 different rabbits so far, two of which seemed promising but ran out of juice, with no charging stations in sight.
My next step is to print out a clean PDF and start anew. No rush, though, I like being where it's warm.
UPDATE: Back out in the cold. I feel so close or so way off. I have 4/5 letters. So aggravating. Gonna have a cabernet and cigar anyway.

Good luck to all for a successful solve. If you see that I'm ashore - rare occasion of late - message me if you'd like a nudge. Be sure to include your progress so I can know better how to assist.

Step one found quickly, step two found me Alice-ing down a rabbit hole. Will keep looking.
EDIT: On shore.

Ashore! Thanks to some help from the Zoom call. Definitely should have gotten the first step earlier… oh well. Non-alchoholic Guinness for me..

Confirmed with the Zoom crowd that I was on the right track and then quickly found the solution. Even though I am missing a piece of the puzzle, I am certain of my answer. Great to see everyone on Zoom - Happy New Year to Muggles everywhere! I wish I was on a real beach, instead of nursing the RSV virus on our virtual one.

Zoomed to the finish, finally! Rabbits galore, and needed a rope lowered by my muggly friends to get me out. Not submitting but still relieved to exit this one! Happy New Year, all!!

Nudged out of my rabbit hole and safely onto shore. Thanks for a great year of satisfying puzzles, my Muggle friends!
