Day 1628
Day 1628 in Seahaven Springs, under sunny skies. The photocopier at Seahaven Mutual is making the noise again. Opal Ferris has been elected to deal with it. The orchard is loud with bees. Nobody has been stung in living memory. Wilf Tanner was born to Bev Tanner and Milo Ferris. Nothing bad ever happens here — but something is always going on. The Plum Harvest runs into trouble. Goodnight, Truman. In case we don't see you: good afternoon, good evening, and goodnight.
