Day 5463
Day 5463 in Seahaven Springs, under cloudy skies. Sal Marino 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. The tide is out further than usual. Ike Tidewater has gone to look at what it left behind. Nothing bad ever happens here — but something is always going on. The Motion Still Pending runs into trouble. Goodnight, Truman. In case we don't see you: good afternoon, good evening, and goodnight.
