Day 714
Day 714 in Seahaven Springs, under sunny skies. Sheriff Brody spotted on a certain porch — will the fish feud finally thaw? 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. Talent Night at The Anchor runs into trouble. Goodnight, Truman. In case we don't see you: good afternoon, good evening, and goodnight.

09:00For four seconds Truman Beaumont's radio carried a voice describing exactly where Truman Beaumont was standing.
09:00Word has gone round the kitchens: Truman Beaumont is to be given his favourite, and no bill.
11:00There is one more chair at The Anchor than there was yesterday. Rex has not mentioned it.
12:00The photocopier at Seahaven Mutual is making the noise again. Abel Callahan has been elected to deal with it.

13:00Truman Beaumont has received a postcard from somewhere far away. The handwriting is unfamiliar.
13:46Sheriff Brody spotted on a certain porch — will the fish feud finally thaw?
14:00A heron has taken up position at Miller's Pond and is refusing to be hurried.
14:11Hal Brody and Dot Ferris have cleared the air over a quiet chat.

16:00A kite is stuck in the big park tree. A committee is forming.
17:00Sunday supper is drawing the town toward The Salty Gull.
21:00The rain has cleared. A rainbow appeared at a frankly cinematic angle.
