Day 4376
Day 4376 in Seahaven Springs, under cloudy skies. Fog has come in off the bay and stopped, very precisely, at the edge of town. The queue at the bakery has reached the door. Nobody minds; it is that kind of queue. Bram Tidewater has turned learning the orchard properly into a real part of life. Nothing bad ever happens here — but something is always going on. The Battle of the Noticeboard runs into trouble. Goodnight, Truman. In case we don't see you: good afternoon, good evening, and goodnight.
