Day 296
Day 296 in Seahaven Springs, under rainy skies. The mackerel have moved on. Seahaven Springs will be eating fish for a week regardless. 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. Goodnight, Truman. In case we don't see you: good afternoon, good evening, and goodnight.
