Though we're now firmly on the shore,
It almost wasn't meant to be:
For seven minutes, maybe more,
I feared we'd both be lost at sea.


Team Canuck ashore. Must be Juno Beach.

We'll have Spitfire. Make it a flight.

Well, the first thing that I was absolutely totally sure had to be relevant didn't end up having anything to do with the solution, and I just now figured out that it was actually just my mistake in filling the grid.

The second idea I had also didn't work, but seems like there might be a meta in it someday.

The third time was the charm, and I'm now joining the shore party.

Solved on paper, as that's always my first choice for the WSJ contest. I take it there was a problem with the website? Seems OK now.

I haven’t got it yet myself, just finished the grid, but you are so right.
It's the opposite for me. I just get more frustrated - "why can't I see it then" - which doesn't help me solve anything. Time to step away for a bit (which is easy since I'm at work).

Late start and had me stymied for a bit, but once you see it you can't unsee it.

Ashore. If you’re looking for another puzzle to do, check out Five for Fighting by Abide. It’s last week’s Muggle Meta Monday. Good one
