Day 1772
Day 1772 in Seahaven Springs, under rainy skies. Rex Callahan is in a staring contest with a gull on the dock. The gull is winning. The tide is out further than usual. Marla Finch has gone to look at what it left behind. A photograph is taken at last. Four people look the wrong way and it is perfect. 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.
