I can't get on thunder's wave length

I was confident of Clearwater st Petersburg!

One more for fun !?

A rock formation I could of climbed backwards, 10 times! Just to get to this varied European base. It also sounds like you should take turns in making a list?

Like most of them break it down

Emperor= ?????
Breakers= ?????, which in turn= ?????
Past the base line= ?????

That is what I do

Peter was an emperor just not the right one!

So Nero , emperor penguin, Hadrian , Napoleon
Breakers - waves?
Beyond the base line - out? Or long?

I am looking at it as a back burner project - still plenty of lockdown time remaining

Bismarck? Army det and German empire

You're on the wrong path with the Emperor bit

Breakers, you're on the right track, just need to expand on it.....

Beyond the base line, think sports.........

Another hint: although this place is still active, it's glory days are in the past.

I take it you answer is in response to my cryptic clue, if so it’s incorrect

Post by **Tiger 1** » Thu Apr 30, 2020 5:04 pm

Hi Thunder

You’re using the correct logic......

Are the waves related to surfing?

Kelly - Lackland

Could it be Pensacola?

Yes they would be connected through location

Thunder... Is it...

Corpus Christi Naval Base?

Homestead-Dade

Formerly Homestead AFB?

Or anything to do with Neptune? P-2

NAS Jacksonville

No no and no

Post by **slogen51** » Thu Apr 30, 2020 8:25 pm

Last guess of the night from me

Base line - Meridian

Are the waves Rapids or surf?

Chanute as in king Canute

Post by **Thunder** » Thu Apr 30, 2020 9:09 pm

Sorry no.

I’ll give you another clue

“amongst the breakers” = waves, waves break at the beach

Post by **Tiger 1** » Thu Apr 30, 2020 9:09 pm

OK.. like slogen my last try of the night... got an early start tomorrow.

Marine Corps Air Station YUMA

Emperor = Yuma
Breakers = Marine
Baseline = Corps as in Corpus
