Day 3843
Day 3843 in Seahaven Springs, under sunny skies. Somebody has been asked to need Truman Beaumont's help with something small and absorbing. A heron has taken up position at Miller's Pond and is refusing to be hurried. Rex Callahan is not currently speaking to Ned Ferris. 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.
OPEN THIS DAY IN THE BROADCASTWhat was announced
00:00Somebody has been asked to need Truman Beaumont's help with something small and absorbing.
04:00Rain has begun over Seahaven Springs. Umbrellas deployed with suspicious synchronization.
07:00A heron has taken up position at Miller's Pond and is refusing to be hurried.
08:00The rain has cleared. A rainbow appeared at a frankly cinematic angle.
11:00Clouds drift in over the bay. The fishermen pretend not to enjoy it.
11:39Hattie Whitlow and Linus Tidewater have cleared the air over a quiet chat.
12:50The original gull grey is chosen. The samples stay up, and nobody minds.
12:50Mabel Tidewater and Opal Ferris kept their word and finished what they started.
12:50And so concludes: The Gull Grey Question. The town will live with how it ended.
14:32Bram Tidewater and Hattie Whitlow have got into the habit of each other.
14:46Lark Ferris has stopped wondering about it, which is not quite the same as knowing.
14:46Abel Callahan has an answer, of a sort, and has decided it will do.
15:00The sun breaks through over Seahaven Springs, precisely on cue.
16:00Business is slow enough that Flo Ferris has been sent home early. Nobody argues.
17:00Sunday supper is drawing the town toward The Salty Gull.
19:00Faint harmonica music was heard from the dock. Everybody denies everything.
19:49Wilf Tanner and Elaine Whitlow kept their word and finished what they started.
21:00The light over Seahaven Springs this evening is almost unreasonably good.
