Day 2836
Day 2836 in Seahaven Springs, under sunny skies. Abel Callahan has been discharged from Seahaven General and is right as rain. Mabel Tidewater has been seen walking out with Dell Tanner. Alma Callahan was born to Bea Callahan and Linus Tidewater. Nothing bad ever happens here — but something is always going on. Word of an Inspection takes a turn. Goodnight, Truman. In case we don't see you: good afternoon, good evening, and goodnight.
