Day 363
Day 363 in Seahaven Springs, under sunny skies. Wonderful news: Rex Callahan and Sal Marino are expecting a baby. Norma has already started knitting. Dot Ferris is stepping out with Dr. Cornelius Pratt. Dot Ferris has found her weeks unaccountably full. Nothing bad ever happens here — but something is always going on. The Plum Harvest takes a turn. Goodnight, Truman. In case we don't see you: good afternoon, good evening, and goodnight.
