Day 4865
Day 4865 in Seahaven Springs, under sunny skies. The flour has arrived. The Bakery smells like itself again. A lighthouse postcard has been added to today's mail. Truman Beaumont collects them, and Control knows it. Silas Tidewater was born to Bram Tidewater and Hattie Whitlow. Nothing bad ever happens here — but something is always going on. The Gull Grey Question reaches its conclusion. Goodnight, Truman. In case we don't see you: good afternoon, good evening, and goodnight.
