Day 3276
Day 3276 in Seahaven Springs, under sunny skies. The mackerel are running off Seahaven Point. The dock has acquired a row of buckets and an atmosphere of quiet competition. A heron has taken up position at Miller's Pond and is refusing to be hurried. The tide is out further than usual. Elaine Whitlow has gone to look at what it left behind. Nothing bad ever happens here — but something is always going on. The Box Of Left Boots Delivery takes a turn. Goodnight, Truman. In case we don't see you: good afternoon, good evening, and goodnight.
