Day 5437
Day 5437 in Seahaven Springs, under cloudy skies. Iris Brody and Marla Finch have stopped leaving their friendship to chance. The tide is out further than usual. Fern Gorse has gone to look at what it left behind. The orchard is loud with bees. Nobody has been stung in living memory. Nothing bad ever happens here — but something is always going on. The Battle of the Noticeboard takes a turn. Goodnight, Truman. In case we don't see you: good afternoon, good evening, and goodnight.
