On shore, I think.

Hopefully, I have hAUled myself to the correct shore. And I juST missed page one! I guess that the moRAL of this story is that I NEed to think quicker--on the GRId and the meta TOo. Going out to dinner tonight, so I'll have whatever cocktail is on special.

Ashore. Late start and then needed to pencil and paper it. How very quaint. In any event, beer me!

Had to do the grid on paper as the interactive version was not working. Very old school! Happy to solve quickly and start my weekend!!

Needed a nudge to extract me from a rabbit hole, but got there.

ETA: also delayed by creating my own .puz file, but that wasn't the real issue in the end :lol:

Delayed solve because I haven't solved on paper for 20+ years, but I am on shore.
