Day 5531

Day 5531 in Seahaven Springs, under sunny skies. Perry Gorse has come down with a headache that has outstayed its welcome and is being kept in for observation. Fog has come in off the bay and stopped, very precisely, at the edge of town. Dot Ferris has received a postcard from somewhere far away. The handwriting is unfamiliar. Nothing bad ever happens here — but something is always going on. The Sea Glass Season takes a turn. Goodnight, Truman. In case we don't see you: good afternoon, good evening, and goodnight.
