Day 637
Day 637 in Seahaven Springs, under sunny skies. The Town Hall clock and the bakery clock disagree by two minutes. Both are certain. 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.
