Day 5613
Day 5613 in Seahaven Springs, under sunny skies. Silas Tidewater is in a staring contest with a gull on the dock. The gull is winning. It is too hot in Seahaven Springs. The tarmac on Front Street has gone soft and the Sunrise Café has put its chairs in the shade. Alma Callahan has come down with a headache that has outstayed its welcome and is being kept in for observation. Nothing bad ever happens here — but something is always going on. The Dog Nobody Owns runs into trouble. Goodnight, Truman. In case we don't see you: good afternoon, good evening, and goodnight.
