Day 4888
Day 4888 in Seahaven Springs, under rainy skies. Commotion at The Anchor! Abel Callahan and Hattie Whitlow came to (very gentle) blows over a disagreement over who really caught the biggest fish. Abel Callahan is not currently speaking to Hattie Whitlow. Hattie Whitlow 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. The Book Nobody Finished takes a turn. Goodnight, Truman. In case we don't see you: good afternoon, good evening, and goodnight.
OPEN THIS DAY IN THE BROADCASTWhat was announced
00:00Silas Tidewater is officially toddling and into everything. Founders Park will never be the same.
00:00It is too hot in Seahaven Springs. The tarmac on Front Street has gone soft and the Sunrise Café has put its chairs in the shade.
00:00A quantity of paperwork has appeared on Truman Beaumont's desk. Bev has been briefed to keep him at it.
03:00Rain has begun over Seahaven Springs. Umbrellas deployed with suspicious synchronization.
07:28Jonah Ferris is not brilliant at sketching the shoreline, and is no longer pretending to be. It stuck anyway.

15:00A heron has taken up position at Miller's Pond and is refusing to be hurried.
16:00The Town Hall clock and the bakery clock disagree by two minutes. Both are certain.
17:00The rain has cleared. A rainbow appeared at a frankly cinematic angle.
18:00The tide is out further than usual. Gil Ferris has gone to look at what it left behind.
18:24Dot Ferris's evening happened, ran long, and is still being talked about.
18:39Perry Gorse and Jonah Ferris kept their word and finished what they started.
19:00Clouds drift in over the bay. The fishermen pretend not to enjoy it.
20:00The sun breaks through over Seahaven Springs, precisely on cue.
20:00For four seconds Truman Beaumont's radio carried a voice describing exactly where Truman Beaumont was standing.
21:00The lights of Seahaven Springs flickered for exactly three seconds. The town clock is unbothered.

21:55Wilf Tanner offered to buy the room a drink, then checked a pocket.
21:59Cass Tanner has begun issuing compliments in alphabetical order.
22:00Rain has begun over Seahaven Springs. Umbrellas deployed with suspicious synchronization.
22:00Commotion at The Anchor! Abel Callahan and Hattie Whitlow came to (very gentle) blows over a disagreement over who really caught the biggest fish.
