Haven't been around much and was coming here for a clue, but I'm on the shore.

Had help pushing off from the ship
Other than that cruised to the Beach
An Old Fashioned will do just fine.
Maybe two.

Took a break from Thursday’s failed attempts and just got time to check it again. My initial thought was correct. I needed to apply in a different manner. On shore! Good puzzle.

Sure is quiet out here on the sea. Engines have stopped. Going nowhere. But there is a bottle of red handy, and I think I'll go have a consultation.

Thanks to a very kind nudge we are now on shore! Definitely did NOT see this for a very VERY LONG time. Thanks very much to the nudger!

On shore thanks to Mr. LadyBird's observant eye. We already enjoyed some sangria at a tapas restaurant--making the most of Restaurant Week in Chicagoland.

Home from a week on the floating Petri dish.
Grid done but my fauxitos did nothing to help me solve this baby while onboard.
Will soldier on safely and quietly from good old home!

On the beach yay!! Had been glancing at it off and on all day. Then decided to focus on it instead of my usual bedtime book and the answer jumped out. Happy to be in the beach two weeks in a row!

On the beach. Just curious. How many people here have actually won a mug?

Not me, but then I'm kind of a newbie. I've only submitted a little over 300 correct contest entries. Maybe this week will be the one!
