Day 4828
Day 4828 in Seahaven Springs, under sunny skies. Dell Tanner is in a staring contest with a gull on the dock. The gull is winning. The tide is out further than usual. Silas Tidewater has gone to look at what it left behind. Silas Tidewater was born to Bram Tidewater and Hattie Whitlow. Nothing bad ever happens here — but something is always going on. The Book Nobody Finished takes a turn. Goodnight, Truman. In case we don't see you: good afternoon, good evening, and goodnight.
