Day 3022
Day 3022 in Seahaven Springs, under cloudy skies. A blind tasting is arranged at the café. It settles nothing whatsoever. A kite is stuck in the big park tree. A committee is forming. Hattie Whitlow is not currently speaking to Ned Ferris. Nothing bad ever happens here — but something is always going on. The Fish Pie Question reaches its conclusion. Goodnight, Truman. In case we don't see you: good afternoon, good evening, and goodnight.
