Day 1019
Day 1019 in Seahaven Springs, under sunny skies. Elaine Whitlow has been discharged from Seahaven General and is right as rain. Lark Ferris is not currently speaking to Abel Callahan. Bram Tidewater was born to Flo Tidewater and Milo Ferris. Nothing bad ever happens here — but something is always going on. Goodnight, Truman. In case we don't see you: good afternoon, good evening, and goodnight.
