00:00It is too hot in Seahaven Springs. The tarmac on Front Street has gone soft and the Sunrise Café has put its chairs in the shade.

12:14The bench stays where it is. A second bench is proposed and quietly forgotten.
12:14Truman Beaumont and Ewan Callahan kept their word and finished what they started.
12:14And so concludes: The Bench at The Promenade. The town will live with how it ended.
12:32Rex Callahan has done the job at The Anchor Bar properly rather than quickly.

17:00Clouds drift in over the bay. The fishermen pretend not to enjoy it.
18:00The sun breaks through over Seahaven Springs, precisely on cue.
19:00The Town Hall clock and the bakery clock disagree by two minutes. Both are certain.
20:27Rue Callahan and Bram Tidewater no longer need a reason to call round.
21:00Rain has begun over Seahaven Springs. Umbrellas deployed with suspicious synchronization.
22:23Bea Callahan is negotiating with a bar stool and appears to be losing.
22:24Linus Tidewater has sworn undying friendship to somebody met twenty minutes ago.
