Day 5283
Day 5283 in Seahaven Springs, under sunny skies. Commotion at The Anchor! Opal Ferris and Wren Gorse came to (very gentle) blows over a difference of opinion regarding the jukebox. Opal Ferris is not currently speaking to Wren Gorse. Opal Ferris is cooling off in the Sheriff's holding cell after the business at The Anchor. Nothing bad ever happens here — but something is always going on. The Motion Still Pending runs into trouble. Goodnight, Truman. In case we don't see you: good afternoon, good evening, and goodnight.
