Day 5526
Day 5526 in Seahaven Springs, under cloudy skies. The queue at the bakery has reached the door. Nobody minds; it is that kind of queue. Hal Brody has got good enough at learning the orchard properly to be quietly smug about it. The tide is out further than usual. Hal Brody has gone to look at what it left behind. Nothing bad ever happens here — but something is always going on. The Seafoam Question takes a turn. Goodnight, Truman. In case we don't see you: good afternoon, good evening, and goodnight.
