Day 4604
Day 4604 in Seahaven Springs, under sunny skies. Commotion at The Anchor! Lark Ferris and Gil Ferris came to (very gentle) blows over an argument about the correct way to pronounce "buoy". Lark Ferris is not currently speaking to Gil Ferris. Lark Ferris 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. Something in the Pond runs into trouble. Goodnight, Truman. In case we don't see you: good afternoon, good evening, and goodnight.
