Day 5301
Day 5301 in Seahaven Springs, under rainy skies. Gil Ferris is negotiating with a bar stool and appears to be losing. A heron has taken up position at Miller's Pond and is refusing to be hurried. 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. A Visitor Is Expected takes a turn. Goodnight, Truman. In case we don't see you: good afternoon, good evening, and goodnight.
