Day 5273
Day 5273 in Seahaven Springs, under sunny skies. Lark Ferris is in a staring contest with a gull on the dock. The gull is winning. Perry Gorse and Bev Tanner discover they are both entering the kite-flying contest. Rex Callahan is not currently speaking to Ike Tidewater. Nothing bad ever happens here — but something is always going on. The Great Kite-Flying Rivalry takes a turn. Goodnight, Truman. In case we don't see you: good afternoon, good evening, and goodnight.
