Day 5233
Day 5233 in Seahaven Springs, under cloudy skies. Alma Callahan has become extremely confident about lighthouse engineering. The tide is out further than usual. Fern Gorse has gone to look at what it left behind. Posy Gorse was born to Edie Gorse and Ewan Callahan. Nothing bad ever happens here — but something is always going on. The Clock Is Two Minutes Fast takes a turn. Goodnight, Truman. In case we don't see you: good afternoon, good evening, and goodnight.
