Day 5573
Day 5573 in Seahaven Springs, under sunny skies. Commotion at The Anchor! Flo Ferris and Ike Tidewater came to (very gentle) blows over an argument about the correct way to pronounce "buoy". Ike Tidewater is not currently speaking to Flo Ferris. Ike Tidewater is cooling off in the Sheriff's holding cell after the business at The Anchor. 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.
