My first time trying this Meta thing. Seemed pretty obvious, so I'm guessing other weeks are harder?
Indeed
Oh yes. I think they took it easy on us for Thanksgiving this week!

Made it to shore two weeks in a row! Didn't even need a nudge this week. Think I am getting the hang of this!

Ashore, with a silly song about unicorns and Noah's ark stuck in my head (because of the "two by two" line in it).
I know that song!

I had to use Mr G to get up to speed on the unicorn song. I was thinking of the song called "The ants go marching two by two..."
And by the way I meant Abita strawberry yesterday. The auto correct changed it to Anita and I didn't notice!!

On the beach yesterday but forgot to report in. Two in a row! Sadly both easy but I'll take those.

Fill might be tricky for folks who--like me--did not know 18A and couldn't complete with curiosities 5D, 7D, and 8D. On the bright side, I learned a few things. After consulting Mr. G for those, meta was pretty straightforward.

My tender off the cruise ship made stops at several piers. I believe I got off at the correct one. Also thought I posted on Thursday, but don't see my post, so count me as done and done.

Took a few days to find the time to sit and do the puzzle. Took a few minutes after filling the grid to solve the meta. Happy to join the party on shore.
Take care!

Ashore. I don't even think I deserve a drink for this one. But I never could resist peer pressure, so rum on the rocks please.

Good Saturday morning. I hope everyone had a great and safe Thanksgiving.
And welcome to our two newest muggles - shalmanezer and jeffmiz
We have 172 on the very crowded shore. Isaac has taken the week off to enjoy himself with the turkey provided by Brian
And an apology for anyone that I might miss in the process
With that many on shore, it would be a wonder if you didn't miss some. In this case, looks like you missed me.
What's our record? Seems like this one could be up there.

Finally made it to shore after much exploring of rabbit holes! I shall toast my belated success with a nip of bourbon!

Barbara Sorry about the miss. With all the people since lunch, we have 185 on the shore. Our record is 219 so we have a way to go. The record was set September 4 of this year with Mike's contest titled City Blocks and the answer was Miami
