Day 3058
Day 3058 in Seahaven Springs, under sunny skies. Rex Callahan is in a staring contest with a gull on the dock. The gull is winning. Dot Ferris has come down with a bout of something going round the orchard and is being kept in for observation. Hal Brody is not currently speaking to Cole Whitlow. 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.

13:39Truman Beaumont and Milo Ferris kept their word and finished what they started.
13:39And so concludes: The Seed Loaf Question. The town will live with how it ended.
