Day 5410
Day 5410 in Seahaven Springs, under rainy skies. Opal Ferris has come down with a headache that has outstayed its welcome and is being kept in for observation. Jonah Ferris is not currently speaking to Hattie Whitlow. Hattie Whitlow 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 Plum Harvest takes a turn. Goodnight, Truman. In case we don't see you: good afternoon, good evening, and goodnight.
