Day 5666
Day 5666 in Seahaven Springs, under sunny skies. A lighthouse postcard has been added to today's mail. Truman Beaumont collects them, and Control knows it. Kip Doyle is not brilliant at keeping a notebook about the pond, and is no longer pretending to be. It stuck anyway. Jonah Ferris is not currently speaking to Linus Tidewater. Nothing bad ever happens here — but something is always going on. The Photograph Nobody Can Explain runs into trouble. Goodnight, Truman. In case we don't see you: good afternoon, good evening, and goodnight.
OPEN THIS DAY IN THE BROADCASTWhat was announced
00:00A lighthouse postcard has been added to today's mail. Truman Beaumont collects them, and Control knows it.
06:59Kip Doyle is not brilliant at keeping a notebook about the pond, and is no longer pretending to be. It stuck anyway.
09:12Whatever Ned Ferris and Kip Doyle were circling, they have landed on it.
09:18There were not enough plates at Bea Callahan's, and nobody minded.
09:57Perry Gorse has closed the notebook on one small Seahaven mystery, satisfied for now.
11:00Posy Gorse noticed the greetings had gone identical and improvised badly but successfully.
12:00It is Wednesday lunch in Founders Park. Benches are being claimed diplomatically.
12:49An old photograph of the promenade surfaces. One face in it nobody recognises.
13:00Milo Ferris has received a postcard from somewhere far away. The handwriting is unfamiliar.
14:00Posy Gorse answered a question Truman Beaumont had not asked out loud.
15:00The town ladder is on its fourth borrower this week and nobody is sure who owns it.
19:00The lights of Seahaven Springs flickered for exactly three seconds. The town clock is unbothered.
19:23Milo Ferris and Hattie Whitlow kept their word and finished what they started.
19:53One small Seahaven question is settled, and Cole Whitlow is already eyeing another.
21:00Rain has begun over Seahaven Springs. Umbrellas deployed with suspicious synchronization.
22:00The rain has cleared. A rainbow appeared at a frankly cinematic angle.
22:02The Anchor's piano is being played by Perry Gorse, who cannot play piano.
22:09Fern Gorse has thanked every chair in The Anchor for its service.
22:18Alma Callahan is conducting an imaginary orchestra near the dartboard.
