Ashore! Love it when you see it right away :)
Always happy to provide a nudge if I’m ashore.

Ashore! Another one for the list of good puzzles for newer solvers! Very Shenky which is good for those who may not know his tells.

Phew... Was looking at all the wrong places initially, but then after a short recess I came back and it slapped me in the face. So, I am ashore in front of a long weekend. Going to go and enjoy a picture perfect Colorado afternoon and enjoy the 80 degree sunshine. If I could, would love to start the weekend with my favorite IPA. Four Noses' 'Bout Damn Time. The first one will go down fast, so let's get another in reserve!
Have a great weekend everyone! Hope to make the Zoom tomorrow if I can!

If you see me on the beach, feel free to pm for a nudge. After all the help I’ve got, I am happy to send it forward when I can!

On the beach. Even with my limited knowledge of professional sports, it was a quick solve once I saw my way off the ship. Fun one.

Jameson, neat.
For nudges, feel free to PM me. I won't have a clue how to help you, but you might shove me ashore.

Gonna be a crowded beach.

I'll make up a drink called "crowd control" and order it. It'll have Blue caracoa and, oh, I guess ĝin and... well, make up the rest of the ingredients later.
