Day 2769
Day 2769 in Seahaven Springs, under rainy skies. Commotion at The Anchor! Orson Ferris and Opal Ferris came to (very gentle) blows over a heated debate over the last pickled egg. Orson Ferris is not currently speaking to Opal Ferris. Orson Ferris is cooling off in the Sheriff's holding cell after the business at The Anchor. 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.
