Day 1481

Day 1481 in Seahaven Springs, under sunny skies. Fog has come in off the bay and stopped, very precisely, at the edge of town. The tide is out further than usual. Jonah Ferris has gone to look at what it left behind. Bea Callahan and Linus Tidewater have stopped leaving their friendship to chance. 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.
