Day 5570

Day 5570 in Seahaven Springs, under sunny skies. The town cat is asleep on the Town Hall steps. Municipal business reroutes around it. The orchard is loud with bees. Nobody has been stung in living memory. The photocopier at Seahaven Mutual is making the noise again. Silas Tidewater has been elected to deal with it. Nothing bad ever happens here — but something is always going on. The Great Seahaven Bake-Off Approaches has the whole town talking. Goodnight, Truman. In case we don't see you: good afternoon, good evening, and goodnight.
