I couldn’t get to the crossword until yesterday.
With the grid complete, I am struggling to find my way to the first step for the meta.
Better count me in the bar, watching football. Perhaps I’ll be able to post with better news later today.

Was in the right rabbit hole. Needed a bit of a nudge in there. On shore, not submitting.

Ok, I'm stuck and before I lose interest and forget to see what the full solution is, I'm ready for a nudge. I can tell what I've done so far.

edit: currently being nudged. Thanks

It took a nudge from @BarbaraK, but I made it to shore! I'll be at Last Call tonight, but I had done so much poking at this puzzle that I couldn't wait til then to find out where I was going wrong.

Solved! Yesterday, I had the right beginning, but didn't know where to go with it. Today, I found the right path without much trouble. 🤷🏼‍♀️

On the ship, fogged in. Can’t make headway after the first step that makes the most sense. Many other ideas, but nothing that fully works. Don’t think I’m getting this one!

Found an answer and submitted it although I really don’t have much confidence in it. 🤷‍♀️

Annual girls weekend with college friends. Wonderful time. But, I may be suffering the effects of being overserved and underslept.

So, count me on the ship. Club soda with lime, please, Isaac.

Anyone around to give a nudge before last call? We are pretty sure we have the first step. Not sure what comes next!

New here, is there a meeting ID or link to this?

Nevermind, I found the link up top.

On shore, I think. What I submitted fits what seems to fit though I am not confident of the answer. Would not be surprised to be pageanted.

Ashore, thanks to a nudge from the Muggle Zoom team! Won't submit but still gave me room for some "aha" feelings and fun solving/learning, so I recommend it to anyone when a puzzle just isn't clicking. Really lovely to meet/see all those Muggle faces this evening!

Well…I have AN answer…..😕….. that I can justify. I will jump on a boat to get a quick look at the sunset from the shore and then return to my stool at Isaac’s bar.
As my parents would always say: “We’ll see”.
Good luck to all on winning the mug!

Thanks to the muggles on the zoom call who rowed me to shore. I won’t be submitting. :)
