Day 2734

Day 2734 in Seahaven Springs, under sunny skies. There were not enough plates at Cole Whitlow's, and nobody minded. Opal Ferris and Fern Gorse no longer need a reason to call round. Hattie Whitlow is not currently speaking to Toby Tanner. Nothing bad ever happens here — but something is always going on. The Shortcut reaches its conclusion. Goodnight, Truman. In case we don't see you: good afternoon, good evening, and goodnight.

17:00Orson Ferris called Truman Beaumont by the wrong name mid-sentence, then laughed a little too quickly.

21:00The sun breaks through over Seahaven Springs, precisely on cue.
