Day 5714
Day 5714 in Seahaven Springs, under cloudy skies. Nell Tidewater has come down with a spectacular head cold and is being kept in for observation. Posy Gorse and Perry Gorse no longer need a reason to call round. Abel Callahan is in Seahaven General after they discovered the loose paving slab outside the shop. 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.
