Day 3384
Day 3384 in Seahaven Springs, under rainy skies. Wren Gorse has been discharged from Seahaven General and is right as rain. The fair is over and the bunting is down. Two flags remain, and will remain, in a tree. A lighthouse postcard has been added to today's mail. Truman Beaumont collects them, and Control knows it. Nothing bad ever happens here — but something is always going on. The Dog Nobody Owns reaches its conclusion. Goodnight, Truman. In case we don't see you: good afternoon, good evening, and goodnight.

00:00The fair is over and the bunting is down. Two flags remain, and will remain, in a tree.
00:00A lighthouse postcard has been added to today's mail. Truman Beaumont collects them, and Control knows it.

10:49Ned Ferris makes posters. The dog attends the poster-making.
11:00Rain has begun over Seahaven Springs. Umbrellas deployed with suspicious synchronization.
12:00It is Wednesday lunch in Founders Park. Benches are being claimed diplomatically.
13:00Every boat at the dock is fully booked today. Control is quietly pleased with how ordinary that sounds.
14:00The rain has driven everyone indoors, and the café is doing the best trade of the week.
14:06Whatever Orson Ferris and Dell Tanner were circling, they have landed on it.
16:00The rain has cleared. A rainbow appeared at a frankly cinematic angle.

18:00A hedge has been trimmed one inch past a boundary. Diplomacy is under way.
19:29learning the orchard properly has stopped being something Perry Gorse is trying, and become something they do.
20:00Clouds drift in over the bay. The fishermen pretend not to enjoy it.

22:00The sun breaks through over Seahaven Springs, precisely on cue.
22:02Abel Callahan is negotiating with a bar stool and appears to be losing.
22:06Linus Tidewater is teaching the room a song that appears to have no chorus.

23:00Rain has begun over Seahaven Springs. Umbrellas deployed with suspicious synchronization.
