Day 3417
Day 3417 in Seahaven Springs, under sunny skies. Word has gone round the kitchens: Truman Beaumont is to be given his favourite, and no bill. sketching the shoreline has stopped being something Dot Ferris is trying, and become something they do. Iris Brody is not currently speaking to Linus Tidewater. Nothing bad ever happens here — but something is always going on. A Quiet Week for the Sheriff takes a turn. Goodnight, Truman. In case we don't see you: good afternoon, good evening, and goodnight.
