Day 1024
Day 1024 in Seahaven Springs, under sunny skies. Truman Beaumont and Elaine Whitlow discover they are both entering the crossword contest. Bram Tidewater was born to Flo Tidewater and Milo Ferris. Hattie Whitlow was born to Elaine Whitlow and Marla Finch. Nothing bad ever happens here — but something is always going on. The Great Crossword Rivalry takes a turn. Goodnight, Truman. In case we don't see you: good afternoon, good evening, and goodnight.
