Day 2656
Day 2656 in Seahaven Springs, under sunny skies. Marla Finch and Elaine Whitlow have stopped leaving their friendship to chance. Orson Ferris has turned sketching the shoreline into a real part of life. Ike Tidewater was born to Bram Tidewater and Hattie Whitlow. Nothing bad ever happens here — but something is always going on. A Quiet Week for the Sheriff takes a turn. Goodnight, Truman. In case we don't see you: good afternoon, good evening, and goodnight.
