Day 1655
Day 1655 in Seahaven Springs, under sunny skies. Sheriff Brody and Truman Beaumont spotted measuring ladders at Community Orchard & Gardens — no arrests, but several very serious notes taken. Toby Tanner is in Seahaven General after they came down awkwardly off the orchard ladder. Wilf Tanner was born to Bev Tanner and Milo Ferris. Nothing bad ever happens here — but something is always going on. Whose Ladder Is This runs into trouble. Goodnight, Truman. In case we don't see you: good afternoon, good evening, and goodnight.
