Day 4481
Day 4481 in Seahaven Springs, under sunny skies. Bram Tidewater is in a staring contest with a gull on the dock. The gull is winning. Elaine Whitlow's evening happened, ran long, and is still being talked about. Wilf Tanner and Perry Gorse have quietly become the sort of friends who notice things. Nothing bad ever happens here — but something is always going on. A Visitor Is Expected reaches its conclusion. Goodnight, Truman. In case we don't see you: good afternoon, good evening, and goodnight.
