Day 5544
Day 5544 in Seahaven Springs, under sunny skies. Milo Ferris has been released from the Sheriff's office with a stern word and a handshake. The traveling garden gnome has been spotted on a new porch. Nobody admits to moving it. Bev Tanner is in a staring contest with a gull on the dock. The gull is winning. Nothing bad ever happens here — but something is always going on. A Wager on the Weather takes a turn. Goodnight, Truman. In case we don't see you: good afternoon, good evening, and goodnight.
