Day 5422
Day 5422 in Seahaven Springs, under sunny skies. Mabel Tidewater has been discharged from Seahaven General and is right as rain. The traveling garden gnome has been spotted on a new porch. Nobody admits to moving it. There were not enough plates at Abel Callahan's, and nobody minded. 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.
