Day 3231
Day 3231 in Seahaven Springs, under rainy skies. Edie Gorse is in a staring contest with a gull on the dock. The gull is winning. A heron has taken up position at Miller's Pond and is refusing to be hurried. Mabel Tidewater's small gathering has come together, with just enough chairs and no speeches. 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.
