Day 4338
Day 4338 in Seahaven Springs, under sunny skies. Ike Tidewater has been discharged from Seahaven General and is right as rain. Rex Callahan is not currently speaking to Iris Brody. Hattie Whitlow is not currently speaking to Dell Tanner. Nothing bad ever happens here — but something is always going on. The Bench at The Promenade reaches its conclusion. Goodnight, Truman. In case we don't see you: good afternoon, good evening, and goodnight.
