Day 5038

Day 5038 in Seahaven Springs, under cloudy skies. Commotion at The Anchor! Hal Brody and Fern Gorse came to (very gentle) blows over a heated debate over the last pickled egg. Hal Brody is not currently speaking to Fern Gorse. Iris Brody is not currently speaking to Bea Callahan. Nothing bad ever happens here — but something is always going on. Goodnight, Truman. In case we don't see you: good afternoon, good evening, and goodnight.
