Day 763
Day 763 in Seahaven Springs, under sunny skies. Beattie caught the early bus out. Bev Tanner waved for slightly too long. The town cat is asleep on the Town Hall steps. Municipal business reroutes around it. Jonah Ferris was born to Dot Ferris and Kip Doyle. Nothing bad ever happens here — but something is always going on. A Key, and No Lock reaches its conclusion. Goodnight, Truman. In case we don't see you: good afternoon, good evening, and goodnight.
