Day 3718
Day 3718 in Seahaven Springs, under rainy skies. Edie Gorse's evening happened, ran long, and is still being talked about. Fog has come in off the bay and stopped, very precisely, at the edge of town. Marla Finch and Elaine Whitlow have stopped leaving their friendship to chance. Nothing bad ever happens here — but something is always going on. The Bench at The Pond reaches its conclusion. Goodnight, Truman. In case we don't see you: good afternoon, good evening, and goodnight.
