Day 4034
Day 4034 in Seahaven Springs, under sunny skies. Linus Tidewater is in a staring contest with a gull on the dock. The gull is winning. Opal Ferris is not currently speaking to Ike Tidewater. Ike Tidewater is cooling off in the Sheriff's holding cell after the business at The Anchor. Nothing bad ever happens here — but something is always going on. A Surprise for Truman Beaumont runs into trouble. Goodnight, Truman. In case we don't see you: good afternoon, good evening, and goodnight.
