Day 279
Day 279 in Seahaven Springs, under sunny skies. A baby has arrived in Seahaven Springs! Dot Ferris and Dr. Cornelius Pratt would like you to meet Lark Ferris. Dot Ferris is stepping out with Dr. Cornelius Pratt. Dot Ferris has been quiet lately, and keeps starting sentences she does not finish. Nothing bad ever happens here — but something is always going on. The Fish Pie Question takes a turn. Goodnight, Truman. In case we don't see you: good afternoon, good evening, and goodnight.
