Day 5558
Day 5558 in Seahaven Springs, under sunny skies. Milo Ferris is in a staring contest with a gull on the dock. The gull is winning. The tide is out further than usual. someone has gone to look at what it left behind. The queue at the bakery has reached the door. Nobody minds; it is that kind of queue. Nothing bad ever happens here — but something is always going on. Everybody, Slightly Left takes a turn. Goodnight, Truman. In case we don't see you: good afternoon, good evening, and goodnight.
