Day 5992
Day 5992 in Seahaven Springs, under rainy skies. Fog has come in off the bay and stopped, very precisely, at the edge of town. Gil Ferris and Flo Ferris have stopped leaving their friendship to chance. Ewan Callahan is not currently speaking to Iris Brody. Nothing bad ever happens here — but something is always going on. The Founders Day Festival Approaches has the whole town talking. Goodnight, Truman. In case we don't see you: good afternoon, good evening, and goodnight.
