Day 2946
Day 2946 in Seahaven Springs, under rainy skies. Ewan Callahan is in a staring contest with a gull on the dock. The gull is winning. The orchard has produced more than anybody knows what to do with. There are apples on doorsteps, unasked for and unavoidable. Wren Gorse was born to Edie Gorse and Ewan Callahan. Nothing bad ever happens here — but something is always going on. The Great Seahaven Bake-Off Approaches takes a turn. Goodnight, Truman. In case we don't see you: good afternoon, good evening, and goodnight.
