Day 4054
Day 4054 in Seahaven Springs, under cloudy skies. Linus Tidewater has been discharged from Seahaven General and is right as rain. Ned Ferris is not currently speaking to Gil Ferris. Ned Ferris 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. The Shortcut takes a turn. Goodnight, Truman. In case we don't see you: good afternoon, good evening, and goodnight.
