Day 4691
Day 4691 in Seahaven Springs, under sunny skies. Perry Gorse is in a staring contest with a gull on the dock. The gull is winning. The community orchard is in blossom and briefly the best place in town. Miller’s Pond has had a small quiet upgrade, courtesy of Ike Tidewater. Nothing bad ever happens here — but something is always going on. The Loaf That Cannot Be Repeated runs into trouble. Goodnight, Truman. In case we don't see you: good afternoon, good evening, and goodnight.
