Day 5767
Day 5767 in Seahaven Springs, under rainy skies. Linus Tidewater is describing a fish that grows between each telling. Fog has come in off the bay and stopped, very precisely, at the edge of town. Gil Ferris and Flo Ferris no longer need a reason to call round. Nothing bad ever happens here — but something is always going on. The Shortcut runs into trouble. Goodnight, Truman. In case we don't see you: good afternoon, good evening, and goodnight.
