Day 674

Day 674 in Seahaven Springs, under rainy skies. Fern Gorse twisted an ankle chasing a runaway shopping trolley and is spending a few days in Seahaven General. 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 Clock Is Two Minutes Fast reaches its conclusion. Goodnight, Truman. In case we don't see you: good afternoon, good evening, and goodnight.

OPEN THIS DAY IN THE BROADCAST

10:00The town ladder is on its fourth borrower this week and nobody is sure who owns it.
11:00Somebody has repainted their front door overnight. Opinions are being gathered.
12:00The sun breaks through over Seahaven Springs, precisely on cue.
12:26Sal Marino points out the whole town is now two minutes ahead of nothing at all.
13:00Norma Quist has received a postcard from somewhere far away. The handwriting is unfamiliar.
14:00There is one more chair at The Anchor than there was yesterday. Rex has not mentioned it.
14:00Fern Gorse twisted an ankle chasing a runaway shopping trolley and is spending a few days in Seahaven General.
15:00Something glinted in the hedge at eye height, tracking Truman Beaumont as he passed.
15:00The radio in Truman Beaumont's kitchen has been persuaded to play his favourite song. He is singing along, badly.
16:00The town cat is asleep on the Town Hall steps. Municipal business reroutes around it.
17:00The lights of Seahaven Springs flickered for exactly three seconds. The town clock is unbothered.
19:47Truman Beaumont and Elaine Whitlow kept their word and finished what they started.
20:00Faint harmonica music was heard from the dock. Gus denies everything.
22:00Rain has begun over Seahaven Springs. Umbrellas deployed with suspicious synchronization.
22:19Lark Ferris is teaching the room a song that appears to have no chorus.
23:00Commotion at The Anchor! Lark Ferris and Edie Gorse came to (very gentle) blows over an argument about the correct way to pronounce "buoy".
23:00Sheriff Brody has invited Lark Ferris to spend the night in the cells. Everyone agrees this is for the best.
