On shore. It took me too long after mostly figuring it out to get the answer.

Solved. Idea didn't work. Didn't see it. Played out a huge red herring. Tried a variation. Didn't see it. Didn't see it. Walked away to watch a friend's partially owned horse run at The Spa, Saratoga Springs. Saw it. Original idea worked but tweaked.

On the shore - A new record for me if this is truly page 2? Maybe some people are taking Bastille Day off. Looking forward to a nice Chicago weekend ahead. Make mine a Goose Island Green Line to celebrate.

Not sure why I was waiting with bated breath at drop time--and then drop time plus 15--because now I am muttering under my breath--"Oh, 64A".

No comment other than that I am on shore, even with a late start (I was at the gym doing burpees)!
Some of you were asking about activity in my backyard. Here is the mamma raccoon with her four offspring.

Spending time with Isaac. Unsure how to further develop the idea I have. Looking for inspiration from adult libations.
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.

Ooh, I just came up with a cute hail mary answer... not technically a trio but... well, it's sort of a trio.... but got no reason for it.
I guess I should change my signature, and start promoting this meta: Hungry Little Creature. I was going to sent it to people for testing but I dropped the ball on it.

Ugh, Iโm in such a slump. Maybe itโs time I go back to just doing regular crosswords. If I donโt see the path right away, I donโt really know what else to do. I used to think I was good at metas, but Iโm getting so demoralizedโฆ

On the shore! Might be the first time I've ever solved on a Thursday. Happy to be on page 2!
