Day 5501
Day 5501 in Seahaven Springs, under sunny skies. Dot Ferris is in a staring contest with a gull on the dock. The gull is winning. The heat has broken. Seahaven Springs has collectively decided it was pleasant all along. Ewan Callahan is in Seahaven General after they lost a disagreement with a deckchair on the promenade. Nothing bad ever happens here — but something is always going on. A Quiet Week for the Sheriff reaches its conclusion. Goodnight, Truman. In case we don't see you: good afternoon, good evening, and goodnight.
