The grid is a bear! The meta is not. Luckily.

Late to start, but quickly to shore. That grid was... not fun.
Happy to give nudges. If you notice I've solved, please tell me about avenues you've explored so I can nudge you in the right direction and not off a cliff.

toes in the sand, pour me a cold one (or two, or three, I'm not driving anywhere, it's a beach, not an interstate)

Went backwards for a couple of minutes but got it. Nice puzzle and the grid was a little crunchy. Single malt night

Solved meta much quicker than grid.
