Day 2687
Day 2687 in Seahaven Springs, under rainy skies. Bev Tanner is in a staring contest with a gull on the dock. The gull is winning. Sal Marino is in Seahaven General after they discovered the loose paving slab outside the shop. Ike Tidewater was born to Bram Tidewater and Hattie Whitlow. 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.

07:57Marla Finch's small gathering has come together, with just enough chairs and no speeches.
08:00The queue at the bakery has reached the door. Nobody minds; it is that kind of queue.
09:00Rain has begun over Seahaven Springs. Umbrellas deployed with suspicious synchronization.
10:00Saturday orchard morning is under way. Opinions about ladders are plentiful.
10:00Bev Tanner is in a staring contest with a gull on the dock. The gull is winning.

11:00Rain fell in a single column, precisely on Truman Beaumont, and nowhere else in Seahaven Springs.
11:00A lighthouse postcard has been added to today's mail. Truman Beaumont collects them, and Control knows it.
13:00A door that has been locked for as long as Truman Beaumont can remember was standing open this morning.
14:00The rain has cleared. A rainbow appeared at a frankly cinematic angle.
15:00A heron has taken up position at Miller's Pond and is refusing to be hurried.
18:00A seagull has stolen Sal Marino's sandwich near the dock. Again.
18:00Truman Beaumont's radio caught the control room again. Bram Tidewater turned the dial and talked loudly about the weather.

19:35Abel Callahan and Kip Doyle kept their word and finished what they started.
20:00Someone is practising the same eight bars of piano again. The town has grown fond of them.
21:00It is warm enough to sit outside. Half the town has done exactly that.
22:00Rain has begun over Seahaven Springs. Umbrellas deployed with suspicious synchronization.

22:28Iris Brody has explained the tides three times, differently each time.
22:55Jonah Ferris is explaining boats to anyone who will listen down at The Anchor.
