Day 2302
Day 2302 in Seahaven Springs, under rainy skies. Commotion at The Anchor! Linus Tidewater and Hal Brody came to (very gentle) blows over an argument about the correct way to pronounce "buoy". Hal Brody is not currently speaking to Linus Tidewater. Hal Brody 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. Goodnight, Truman. In case we don't see you: good afternoon, good evening, and goodnight.
