Day 4043
Day 4043 in Seahaven Springs, under rainy skies. Abel Callahan is in a staring contest with a gull on the dock. The gull is winning. The puddle outside the Sunrise Café has returned to its usual dimensions. There is one more chair at The Anchor than there was yesterday. Rex has not mentioned it. Nothing bad ever happens here — but something is always going on. What Our Song Actually Is takes a turn. Goodnight, Truman. In case we don't see you: good afternoon, good evening, and goodnight.
