Day 5688
Day 5688 in Seahaven Springs, under cloudy skies. There were not enough plates at Milo Ferris's, and nobody minded. A form has been filed correctly at the first attempt. Town Hall is quietly jubilant. The puddle outside the Sunrise Café has returned to its usual dimensions. Nothing bad ever happens here — but something is always going on. The Case of the Missing Lighthouse Postcard runs into trouble. Goodnight, Truman. In case we don't see you: good afternoon, good evening, and goodnight.
