Day 5579
Day 5579 in Seahaven Springs, under cloudy skies. Nothing has happened in Seahaven Springs for three days. The Sheriff is restless. Bea Callahan has kept at practising stories worth telling long enough that the town expects it now. Hal Brody is not currently speaking to Milo Ferris. Nothing bad ever happens here — but something is always going on. A Quiet Week for the Sheriff runs into trouble. Goodnight, Truman. In case we don't see you: good afternoon, good evening, and goodnight.
