Day 807
Day 807 in Seahaven Springs, under cloudy skies. Hal Brody is in a staring contest with a gull on the dock. The gull is winning. Sheriff Brody spotted sitting still again — this time with company and pie. Elaine Whitlow is being kept in overnight with a spectacular head cold. Nothing bad ever happens here — but something is always going on. Something in the Pond takes a turn. Goodnight, Truman. In case we don't see you: good afternoon, good evening, and goodnight.
