Day 2680
Day 2680 in Seahaven Springs, under rainy skies. The queue at the bakery has reached the door. Nobody minds; it is that kind of queue. Saturday orchard morning is under way. Opinions about ladders are plentiful. Ike Tidewater was born to Bram Tidewater and Hattie Whitlow. Nothing bad ever happens here — but something is always going on. The Leak at The Anchor reaches its conclusion. Goodnight, Truman. In case we don't see you: good afternoon, good evening, and goodnight.
