Day 5514
Day 5514 in Seahaven Springs, under rainy skies. Somebody has repainted their front door overnight. Opinions are being gathered. The photocopier at Seahaven Mutual is making the noise again. Mabel Tidewater has been elected to deal with it. The face is agreed to be somebody passing through. The photograph is framed anyway. 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.
