Day 2366
Day 2366 in Seahaven Springs, under rainy skies. Ned Ferris has been released from the Sheriff's office with a stern word and a handshake. Mabel Tidewater was born to Bram Tidewater and Hattie Whitlow. Dell Tanner was born to Bev Tanner and Milo Ferris. Nothing bad ever happens here — but something is always going on. A Visitor Is Expected takes a turn. Goodnight, Truman. In case we don't see you: good afternoon, good evening, and goodnight.
