Day 5906
Day 5906 in Seahaven Springs, under sunny skies. Perry Gorse is in a staring contest with a gull on the dock. The gull is winning. Hal Brody has begun a heartfelt speech with no clear subject. The tide is out further than usual. Dot Ferris has gone to look at what it left behind. Nothing bad ever happens here — but something is always going on. The Greengage Harvest runs into trouble. Goodnight, Truman. In case we don't see you: good afternoon, good evening, and goodnight.
