Day 3854
Day 3854 in Seahaven Springs, under sunny skies. Truman Beaumont organises the rows. Somebody is missing whenever the rows are ready. Somebody has repainted their front door overnight. Opinions are being gathered. Dell Tanner is not currently speaking to Gil Ferris. Nothing bad ever happens here — but something is always going on. Everybody, Slightly Left takes a turn. Goodnight, Truman. In case we don't see you: good afternoon, good evening, and goodnight.
