Day 5647

Day 5647 in Seahaven Springs, under rainy skies. The tide is out further than usual. Marla Finch has gone to look at what it left behind. Bea Callahan has got good enough at learning the orchard properly to be quietly smug about it. An unclaimed umbrella has been standing by the café door for three days. 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.
