Day 1535
Day 1535 in Seahaven Springs, under sunny skies. Seahaven General reports a record number of well-wishers for one patient and one flowerbed casualty. Fern Gorse is in Seahaven General after they came off worse in an argument with a garden gnome and a flowerbed. Lark Ferris is not currently speaking to Bram Tidewater. Nothing bad ever happens here — but something is always going on. A Surprise for Marla Finch takes a turn. Goodnight, Truman. In case we don't see you: good afternoon, good evening, and goodnight.
