Day 5081

Day 5081 in Seahaven Springs, under cloudy skies. Bea Callahan has been released from the Sheriff's office with a stern word and a handshake. The tide is out further than usual. Dot Ferris has gone to look at what it left behind. Nell Tidewater was born to Mabel Tidewater and Dell Tanner. Nothing bad ever happens here — but something is always going on. The Battle of the Noticeboard reaches its conclusion. Goodnight, Truman. In case we don't see you: good afternoon, good evening, and goodnight.

OPEN THIS DAY IN THE BROADCAST

What was announced

00:00Bea Callahan has been released from the Sheriff's office with a stern word and a handshake.
07:00The tide is out further than usual. Dot Ferris has gone to look at what it left behind.
07:29Cole Whitlow has got good enough at keeping a notebook about the pond to be quietly smug about it.
07:56Bram Tidewater is not brilliant at keeping a notebook about the pond, and is no longer pretending to be. It stuck anyway.
10:00Saturday orchard morning is under way. Opinions about ladders are plentiful.
10:00The Town Hall clock and the bakery clock disagree by two minutes. Both are certain.
11:00Rain has begun over Seahaven Springs. Umbrellas deployed with suspicious synchronization.
11:28The board is now entirely covered and legible from no angle.
13:00The rain has driven everyone indoors, and the café is doing the best trade of the week.
13:07Edie Gorse and Alma Callahan have cleared the air over a quiet chat.
13:07Alma Callahan and Edie Gorse have cleared the air over a quiet chat.
13:19Mabel Tidewater and Dell Tanner have quietly become the sort of friends who notice things.
14:39sketching the shoreline has stopped being something Elaine Whitlow is trying, and become something they do.
15:00Business is slow enough that Fern Gorse has been sent home early. Nobody argues.
16:00The rain has cleared. A rainbow appeared at a frankly cinematic angle.
16:15Truman Beaumont and Elaine Whitlow kept their word and finished what they started.
17:00The community orchard is in blossom and briefly the best place in town.
21:00It is warm enough to sit outside. Half the town has done exactly that.
21:00Opal Ferris fumbled Truman Beaumont's name and recovered it smoothly. Nobody breathed.
22:00Clouds drift in over the bay. The fishermen pretend not to enjoy it.
22:17Ned Ferris has reached the storytelling stage at The Anchor.
22:20Somebody behind the bar has quietly moved Cole Whitlow onto the water. Cole Whitlow has not noticed.
22:20Wren Gorse has begun issuing compliments in alphabetical order.
