Day 5551
Day 5551 in Seahaven Springs, under sunny skies. Milo Ferris has been discharged from Seahaven General and is right as rain. Cole Whitlow and Nell Tidewater have quietly become the sort of friends who notice things. Edie Gorse 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. Goodnight, Truman. In case we don't see you: good afternoon, good evening, and goodnight.
