Day 3438
Day 3438 in Seahaven Springs, under rainy skies. Commotion at The Anchor! Wilf Tanner and Jonah Ferris came to (very gentle) blows over a difference of opinion regarding the jukebox. Jonah Ferris is not currently speaking to Wilf Tanner. Jonah Ferris is cooling off in the Sheriff's holding cell after the business at The Anchor. Nothing bad ever happens here — but something is always going on. Talent Night at The Anchor runs into trouble. Goodnight, Truman. In case we don't see you: good afternoon, good evening, and goodnight.

18:00Every car, gull and passer-by around Truman Beaumont paused at once, as though waiting for a cue.
