Day 2748
Day 2748 in Seahaven Springs, under sunny skies. The puddle outside the Sunrise Café has returned to its usual dimensions. The photocopier at Seahaven Mutual is making the noise again. Ned Ferris has been elected to deal with it. Kip Doyle has hosted the thing they kept meaning to host. Nothing bad ever happens here — but something is always going on. A Visitor Is Expected runs into trouble. Goodnight, Truman. In case we don't see you: good afternoon, good evening, and goodnight.
