Day 2609
Day 2609 in Seahaven Springs, under cloudy skies. Commotion at The Anchor! Bram Tidewater and Fern Gorse came to (very gentle) blows over an argument about the correct way to pronounce "buoy". Hal Brody is in Seahaven General after they was outmanoeuvred by a wet floor at the bakery. Fern Gorse is not currently speaking to Bram Tidewater. Nothing bad ever happens here — but something is always going on. The Bench at The Pond reaches its conclusion. Goodnight, Truman. In case we don't see you: good afternoon, good evening, and goodnight.
