Day 2071
Day 2071 in Seahaven Springs, under rainy skies. Dot Ferris and Kip Doyle have stopped leaving their friendship to chance. Fern Gorse is not currently speaking to Opal Ferris. Milo Ferris is not currently speaking to Abel Callahan. 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.
