Day 176
Day 176 in Seahaven Springs, under sunny skies. A new story begins: The Founders Day Festival Approaches. Dot Ferris is stepping out with Dr. Cornelius Pratt. Gus Tidewater is stepping out with Marla Finch. Nothing bad ever happens here — but something is always going on. The Founders Day Festival Approaches runs into trouble. Goodnight, Truman. In case we don't see you: good afternoon, good evening, and goodnight.

01:00Rain has begun over Seahaven Springs. Umbrellas deployed with suspicious synchronization.
04:00The rain has cleared. A rainbow appeared at a frankly cinematic angle.
07:00Clouds drift in over the bay. Gus pretends not to enjoy it.
09:00The morning mail has arrived. Elaine Whitlow received a mysterious postcard.
10:00Gus Tidewater has received a postcard from somewhere far away. The handwriting is unfamiliar.
11:00The orchard is loud with bees. Nobody has been stung in living memory.
11:34Town hall announces the Founders Day Festival. Committees form instantly.
12:00The tide is out further than usual. June Ellery has gone to look at what it left behind.

14:52Sal Marino and Elaine Whitlow kept their word and finished what they started.
15:00Norma Quist is in a staring contest with a gull on the dock. The gull is winning.
16:00Someone is practising the same eight bars of piano again. The town has grown fond of them.
18:00The light over Seahaven Springs this evening is almost unreasonably good.
20:00It is warm enough to sit outside. Half the town has done exactly that.
21:00The sun breaks through over Seahaven Springs, precisely on cue.
