Day 5877
Day 5877 in Seahaven Springs, under sunny skies. The morning mail has arrived. Linus Tidewater received a mysterious postcard. The orchard is loud with bees. Nobody has been stung in living memory. Uses are proposed for the pallet of paper hats. Several are genuinely good. None are practical. Nothing bad ever happens here — but something is always going on. The Pallet Of Paper Hats Delivery reaches its conclusion. Goodnight, Truman. In case we don't see you: good afternoon, good evening, and goodnight.
