Day 2414
Day 2414 in Seahaven Springs, under rainy skies. Fog has come in off the bay and stopped, very precisely, at the edge of town. The Town Hall clock and the bakery clock disagree by two minutes. Both are certain. Dell Tanner was born to Bev Tanner and Milo Ferris. 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.
