Day 839
Day 839 in Seahaven Springs, under sunny skies. Saturday orchard morning is under way. Opinions about ladders are plentiful. Rex Callahan is in Seahaven General after they took a tumble off a stepladder while rescuing a kite. Bea Callahan was born to Rex Callahan and Sal Marino. Nothing bad ever happens here — but something is always going on. Goodnight, Truman. In case we don't see you: good afternoon, good evening, and goodnight.
