Day 3102
Day 3102 in Seahaven Springs, under rainy skies. An unclaimed umbrella has been standing by the café door for three days. There were not enough plates at Wilf Tanner's, and nobody minded. A seagull has stolen Gil Ferris's sandwich near the dock. Again. Nothing bad ever happens here — but something is always going on. The Motion Still Pending runs into trouble. Goodnight, Truman. In case we don't see you: good afternoon, good evening, and goodnight.
