Day 4205
Day 4205 in Seahaven Springs, under sunny skies. Commotion at The Anchor! Alma Callahan and Hal Brody came to (very gentle) blows over a disagreement over who really caught the biggest fish. Hal Brody is not currently speaking to Alma Callahan. Alma Callahan 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 Plum Harvest takes a turn. Goodnight, Truman. In case we don't see you: good afternoon, good evening, and goodnight.
