Day 3929

Day 3929 in Seahaven Springs, under sunny skies. Cass Tanner has come down with a bout of something going round the orchard and is being kept in for observation. Linus Tidewater has kept at sketching the shoreline long enough that the town expects it now. Cole Whitlow has stopped wondering about it, which is not quite the same as knowing. 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.
