Day 2262
Day 2262 in Seahaven Springs, under rainy skies. The radio in Truman Beaumont's kitchen has been persuaded to play his favourite song. He is singing along, badly. Uses are proposed for the box of left boots. Several are genuinely good. None are practical. Nothing whatsoever is happening in Seahaven Springs. Jonah Ferris appears to be enjoying it. Nothing bad ever happens here — but something is always going on. The Box Of Left Boots Delivery reaches its conclusion. Goodnight, Truman. In case we don't see you: good afternoon, good evening, and goodnight.
