Day 2888

Day 2888 in Seahaven Springs, under sunny skies. Fog has come in off the bay and stopped, very precisely, at the edge of town. Edie Gorse is expecting a baby with Ewan Callahan. Alma Callahan was born to Bea Callahan and Linus Tidewater. 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.
