Day 5857
Day 5857 in Seahaven Springs, under sunny skies. Commotion at The Anchor! Nell Tidewater and Flo Ferris came to (very gentle) blows over a heated debate over the last pickled egg. Rex Callahan is not currently speaking to Ned Ferris. Flo Ferris is not currently speaking to Nell Tidewater. Nothing bad ever happens here — but something is always going on. The Crate Of Doorknobs Delivery takes a turn. Goodnight, Truman. In case we don't see you: good afternoon, good evening, and goodnight.
