Day 2011

Day 2011 in Seahaven Springs, under sunny skies. Commotion at The Anchor! Fern Gorse and Lark Ferris came to (very gentle) blows over a disputed game of dominoes. Fern Gorse is not currently speaking to Lark Ferris. Lark Ferris is cooling off in the Sheriff's holding cell after the business at The Anchor. Nothing bad ever happens here — but something is always going on. A Visitor Is Expected runs into trouble. Goodnight, Truman. In case we don't see you: good afternoon, good evening, and goodnight.
