Day 2967
Day 2967 in Seahaven Springs, under sunny skies. Fog has come in off the bay and stopped, very precisely, at the edge of town. Bev Tanner is not currently speaking to Dot Ferris. Wren Gorse was born to Edie Gorse and Ewan Callahan. 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.
OPEN THIS DAY IN THE BROADCASTWhat was announced
07:00Fog has come in off the bay and stopped, very precisely, at the edge of town.
07:28Perry Gorse and Edie Gorse no longer need a reason to call round.
08:37Dell Tanner has an answer, of a sort, and has decided it will do.
08:44Elaine Whitlow has got good enough at practising stories worth telling to be quietly smug about it.
09:00The Bakery's fresh bread smell has reached the town square. Productivity plummets.
09:17There were not enough plates at Iris Brody's, and nobody minded.
10:00Saturday orchard morning is under way. Opinions about ladders are plentiful.
10:00Rain has begun over Seahaven Springs. Umbrellas deployed with suspicious synchronization.
13:00The same passer-by has now walked past Truman Beaumont three times on the same route.
14:00A form has been filed correctly at the first attempt. Town Hall is quietly jubilant.
14:16The motion is carried unanimously. Nothing whatsoever changes.
14:16Toby Tanner and Ewan Callahan kept their word and finished what they started.
14:16And so concludes: The Motion Still Pending. The town will live with how it ended.
15:00The rain has cleared. A rainbow appeared at a frankly cinematic angle.
17:00The orchard is loud with bees. Nobody has been stung in living memory.
19:00Clouds drift in over the bay. The fishermen pretend not to enjoy it.
19:59Milo Ferris and Iris Brody kept their word and finished what they started.
20:00It is warm enough to sit outside. Half the town has done exactly that.
21:12Ewan Callahan's evening happened, ran long, and is still being talked about.
22:00The sun breaks through over Seahaven Springs, precisely on cue.
22:06Edie Gorse has thanked every chair in The Anchor for its service.
22:11Cole Whitlow is teaching the room a song that appears to have no chorus.
22:16Ned Ferris is negotiating with a bar stool and appears to be losing.
22:24Lark Ferris has proposed a toast to the concept of Thursdays.
