Day 1343

Day 1343 in Seahaven Springs, under rainy skies. Fern Gorse misjudged the last step of the Town Hall stairs and is spending a few days in Seahaven General. Bev Tanner is not currently speaking to Lark Ferris. Hal Brody is not currently speaking to Linus Tidewater. Nothing bad ever happens here — but something is always going on. A Visitor Is Expected reaches its conclusion. Goodnight, Truman. In case we don't see you: good afternoon, good evening, and goodnight.
