Day 631
Day 631 in Seahaven Springs, under sunny skies. Sheriff seen sitting still for over ten minutes. Witnesses stunned. Dot Ferris lost Dr. Cornelius Pratt after a long life together. Dot Ferris is stepping out with Kip Doyle. Nothing bad ever happens here — but something is always going on. The Leak at The Anchor runs into trouble. Goodnight, Truman. In case we don't see you: good afternoon, good evening, and goodnight.
