Day 5420
Day 5420 in Seahaven Springs, under cloudy skies. One small Seahaven question is settled, and Fern Gorse is already eyeing another. Somebody has repainted their front door overnight. Opinions are being gathered. Mabel Tidewater is in Seahaven General after they twisted an ankle chasing a runaway shopping trolley. Nothing bad ever happens here — but something is always going on. The Dog Nobody Owns takes a turn. Goodnight, Truman. In case we don't see you: good afternoon, good evening, and goodnight.
