Day 894
Day 894 in Seahaven Springs, under sunny skies. Commotion at The Anchor! Fern Gorse and Hal Brody came to (very gentle) blows over a disagreement over who really caught the biggest fish. Hal Brody is not currently speaking to Fern Gorse. Fern Gorse is cooling off in the Sheriff's holding cell after the business at The Anchor. Nothing bad ever happens here — but something is always going on. A Visitor Is Expected reaches its conclusion. Goodnight, Truman. In case we don't see you: good afternoon, good evening, and goodnight.
