Day 558
Day 558 in Seahaven Springs, under sunny skies. Rex Callahan has come down with a spectacular head cold. Dr. Pratt is keeping them in for observation. Dot Ferris lost Dr. Cornelius Pratt after a long life together. Dot Ferris is stepping out with Kip Doyle. 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.
