Day 5794
Day 5794 in Seahaven Springs, under sunny skies. Commotion at The Anchor! Jonah Ferris and Iris Brody came to (very gentle) blows over a disagreement over who really caught the biggest fish. Iris Brody is not currently speaking to Jonah Ferris. Jonah Ferris is cooling off in the Sheriff's holding cell after the business at The Anchor. 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.
