Day 3706

Day 3706 in Seahaven Springs, under cloudy skies. A lighthouse postcard has been added to today's mail. Truman Beaumont collects them, and Control knows it. Mabel Tidewater offered to buy the room a drink, then checked a pocket. Iris Brody nearly answered Truman Beaumont early, and turned it into a cough. Nothing bad ever happens here — but something is always going on. Word of an Inspection takes a turn. Goodnight, Truman. In case we don't see you: good afternoon, good evening, and goodnight.
