Day 5417

Day 5417 in Seahaven Springs, under sunny skies. The queue at the bakery has reached the door. Nobody minds; it is that kind of queue. Saturday orchard morning is under way. Opinions about ladders are plentiful. Hal Brody is not currently speaking to Jonah Ferris. Nothing bad ever happens here — but something is always going on. Goodnight, Truman. In case we don't see you: good afternoon, good evening, and goodnight.
