Day 2602
Day 2602 in Seahaven Springs, under cloudy skies. Iris Brody has stopped wondering about it, which is not quite the same as knowing. The lights of Seahaven Springs flickered for exactly three seconds. The town clock is unbothered. The Sandcastle Regatta is held and is, of course, lovely. 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.
