Day 2712
Day 2712 in Seahaven Springs, under cloudy skies. The queue at the bakery has reached the door. Nobody minds; it is that kind of queue. Bea Callahan and Linus Tidewater have got into the habit of each other. Whatever Ned Ferris and Kip Doyle were circling, they have landed on it. Nothing bad ever happens here — but something is always going on. The Bench at The Orchard Gate runs into trouble. Goodnight, Truman. In case we don't see you: good afternoon, good evening, and goodnight.
