Day 5651
Day 5651 in Seahaven Springs, under sunny skies. Ned Ferris and Kip Doyle have stopped leaving their friendship to chance. Mabel Tidewater has hosted the thing they kept meaning to host. A form has been filed correctly at the first attempt. Town Hall is quietly jubilant. Nothing bad ever happens here — but something is always going on. The Book Nobody Finished reaches its conclusion. Goodnight, Truman. In case we don't see you: good afternoon, good evening, and goodnight.
