Day 5749
Day 5749 in Seahaven Springs, under sunny skies. Nell Tidewater has been discharged from Seahaven General and is right as rain. The traveling garden gnome has been spotted on a new porch. Nobody admits to moving it. Kip Doyle has come down with a mystery rash nobody can identify and is being kept in for observation. 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.
