Day 3029

Day 3029 in Seahaven Springs, under cloudy skies. The radio in Truman Beaumont's kitchen has been persuaded to play his favourite song. He is singing along, badly. Fog has come in off the bay and stopped, very precisely, at the edge of town. The traveling garden gnome has been spotted on a new porch. Nobody admits to moving it. Nothing bad ever happens here — but something is always going on. The Book Nobody Finished takes a turn. Goodnight, Truman. In case we don't see you: good afternoon, good evening, and goodnight.
