Day 2955
Day 2955 in Seahaven Springs, under sunny skies. Commotion at The Anchor! Edie Gorse and Linus Tidewater came to (very gentle) blows over an argument about the correct way to pronounce "buoy". Edie Gorse is not currently speaking to Linus Tidewater. Edie Gorse 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. The Pallet Of Paper Hats Delivery runs into trouble. Goodnight, Truman. In case we don't see you: good afternoon, good evening, and goodnight.
