Day 3089

Day 3089 in Seahaven Springs, under cloudy skies. An unclaimed umbrella has been standing by the café door for three days. Fog has come in off the bay and stopped, very precisely, at the edge of town. Edie Gorse is in Seahaven General after they went over on the cobbles carrying rather too much at once. 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 BROADCAST

What was announced

00:00An unclaimed umbrella has been standing by the café door for three days.
04:00Rain has begun over Seahaven Springs. Umbrellas deployed with suspicious synchronization.
07:00The rain has cleared. A rainbow appeared at a frankly cinematic angle.
09:00Fog has come in off the bay and stopped, very precisely, at the edge of town.
09:16Hattie Whitlow has turned learning the orchard properly into a real part of life.
10:00The community orchard is in blossom and briefly the best place in town.
11:18The best pieces end up in a jar on a windowsill, where they were always going.
11:18Truman Beaumont and Ned Ferris kept their word and finished what they started.
11:18And so concludes: The Sea Glass Season. The town will live with how it ended.
12:00The sun breaks through over Seahaven Springs, precisely on cue.
13:00A kite is stuck in the big park tree. A committee is forming.
17:00The orchard is loud with bees. Nobody has been stung in living memory.
18:00There is one more chair at The Anchor than there was yesterday. Rex has not mentioned it.
18:10Mabel Tidewater and Dell Tanner no longer need a reason to call round.
18:56Bea Callahan and Toby Tanner kept their word and finished what they started.
20:00It is warm enough to sit outside. Half the town has done exactly that.
21:47Orson Ferris has proposed a toast to the concept of Thursdays.
22:00Clouds drift in over the bay. The fishermen pretend not to enjoy it.
22:00The bakery sign flickered and, for a moment, read a different name entirely.
22:03Gil Ferris has begun a heartfelt speech with no clear subject.
22:05Somebody behind the bar has quietly moved Lark Ferris onto the water. Lark Ferris has not noticed.
22:07Wilf Tanner has proposed a toast to the concept of Thursdays.
22:14Perry Gorse offered to buy the room a drink, then checked a pocket.
22:15Hattie Whitlow is teaching the room a song that appears to have no chorus.
22:16Rex Callahan is telling the same story again, now with improved weather.
