Day 3692

Day 3692 in Seahaven Springs, under sunny skies. Word has gone round the kitchens: Truman Beaumont is to be given his favourite, and no bill. The tide is out further than usual. Alma Callahan has gone to look at what it left behind. Bea Callahan is not currently speaking to Alma Callahan. Nothing bad ever happens here — but something is always going on. Goodnight, Truman. In case we don't see you: good afternoon, good evening, and goodnight.
