Day 5044
Day 5044 in Seahaven Springs, under rainy skies. Ike Tidewater has been discharged from Seahaven General and is right as rain. Bunting has gone up across Founders Park. The fair is on, and the committee is being very firm about the bunting. Fog has come in off the bay and stopped, very precisely, at the edge of town. Nothing bad ever happens here — but something is always going on. Talent Night at The Anchor runs into trouble. Goodnight, Truman. In case we don't see you: good afternoon, good evening, and goodnight.
