Day 4118
Day 4118 in Seahaven Springs, under rainy skies. Abel Callahan has been discharged from Seahaven General and is right as rain. Dot Ferris has stopped wondering about it, which is not quite the same as knowing. Edie Gorse is not currently speaking to Ike Tidewater. Nothing bad ever happens here — but something is always going on. The Quince Harvest takes a turn. Goodnight, Truman. In case we don't see you: good afternoon, good evening, and goodnight.
