Day 1405
Day 1405 in Seahaven Springs, under rainy skies. Marla Finch has been discharged from Seahaven General and is right as rain. The orchard is loud with bees. Nobody has been stung in living memory. Orson Ferris is in a staring contest with a gull on the dock. The gull is winning. Nothing bad ever happens here — but something is always going on. The Book Nobody Finished runs into trouble. Goodnight, Truman. In case we don't see you: good afternoon, good evening, and goodnight.
