Day 5789
Day 5789 in Seahaven Springs, under rainy skies. The heat has broken. Seahaven Springs has collectively decided it was pleasant all along. A quantity of paperwork has appeared on Truman Beaumont's desk. Bev has been briefed to keep him at it. Whatever Bram Tidewater and Hattie Whitlow were circling, they have landed on it. Nothing bad ever happens here — but something is always going on. The Anonymous Good Deed reaches its conclusion. Goodnight, Truman. In case we don't see you: good afternoon, good evening, and goodnight.
