Day 5616

Day 5616 in Seahaven Springs, under sunny skies. The queue at the bakery has reached the door. Nobody minds; it is that kind of queue. Kip Doyle and Dot Ferris have got into the habit of each other. Elaine Whitlow is in Seahaven General after they lost a disagreement with a deckchair on the promenade. 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.
