Day 816
Day 816 in Seahaven Springs, under sunny skies. The town clock is going again. It is four minutes fast, and the town has decided to live with that. Rex Callahan is a delighted new parent. Sal Marino is a delighted new parent. Nothing bad ever happens here — but something is always going on. Something in the Pond reaches its conclusion. Goodnight, Truman. In case we don't see you: good afternoon, good evening, and goodnight.
