If you want help with a meta, feel free to PM me. The more specific you are about what you have and what you want, the more likely I can help without spoiling.
(And if I help you win a mug, I’ll be especially delighted.)

Took an afternoon plunge and found the shore. Inspiration actually hit while reading these comments! Happy rest of your weekend everyone.

Do you make house calls? I could use some oak flooring. You bring the tools, I supply the Smithwick's?ship4u wrote: Sat Feb 01, 2025 11:04 am My apologies to muggle friends who PM'd me last weekend and I was slow to check my messages and respond.

Finally found my way to a shore after several fruitless rabbit holes. If it’s the right shore, I made it much more complicated than need be.
EDIT: Awoke this morning with certainty that I made it to the right shore.

Count me ashore. Celebratory shot before I go, 24A! What’s that? It’s on the house (boat)? You’re too kind.

Not seeing a path, so I'm hanging out on the boat with the bartender, what's his name. We'll see what light Sunday morning brings. 'night all!
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.

Fastest solo solve for me since I started these. Huzzah!
...Remember there are worse things than a shattered chandelier...
If you see I'm ashore and need a nudge, feel free to message me.

Didn't get to the puzzle until Sat afternoon, and stared blankly for many hours. Finally came to me lying in bed this morning. I guess foggy and groggy eyes can help you see clearly at times.
Whenever you find yourself on the side of the majority, it is time to pause and reflect.

Ashore, after a super effective nudge from @Sleepy. Thank you, kind muggle!olev wrote: Sat Feb 01, 2025 12:45 pm Completely lost at sea - or does that make me on the ship? I'm actually not entirely down with the lingo...
I have read every comment here for some kind of idea, to no avail. I'll take "Frustrating not to see what everyone else is seeing" for $800, please!
Not submitting this week due to the use of life preserver described above. This puzzle struck me as much more Gaffney-esque. And I do have some qualms about it. But I suppose I'm being too nitpicky - it HAS happened before.

Happy Groundhog Day
Phil saw his shadow so we have six more weeks of winter. Question - if he does not see his shadow is it more or less than six weeks?
Of more relevance we have 8 on the ship and 170 on the shore. @BigPear and @Relic joined the group enjoying Isaac's famous brunch.
And making their way to shore are

Well, look what I found. Ashore! Got it before falling asleep last night. Taking Maggie to Twisted Root for a celebratory burger. And, yes she certainly is a well-rounded girl also!
I'll have a Deep Ellum IPA with my Western Burger, thanks.
At Twisted Root, Maggie came just a whisker away from eating the whole thing! She did get her share of beef, bacon, bun, and fries.
