Day 4531
Day 4531 in Seahaven Springs, under sunny skies. Rex Callahan is in a staring contest with a gull on the dock. The gull is winning. The tide is out further than usual. Abel Callahan has gone to look at what it left behind. Perry Gorse called Truman Beaumont by the wrong name mid-sentence, then laughed a little too quickly. Nothing bad ever happens here — but something is always going on. Goodnight, Truman. In case we don't see you: good afternoon, good evening, and goodnight.
