Day 2552
Day 2552 in Seahaven Springs, under rainy skies. Dot Ferris is explaining boats to anyone who will listen down at The Anchor. The morning mail has arrived. Bev Tanner received a mysterious postcard. Perry Gorse was born to Edie Gorse and Ewan Callahan. 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.
