Day 1146
Day 1146 in Seahaven Springs, under rainy skies. Milo Ferris is in a staring contest with a gull on the dock. The gull is winning. The queue at the bakery has reached the door. Nobody minds; it is that kind of queue. Kip Doyle has turned sketching the shoreline into a real part of life. Nothing bad ever happens here — but something is always going on. The Anonymous Good Deed takes a turn. Goodnight, Truman. In case we don't see you: good afternoon, good evening, and goodnight.
