Day 943
Day 943 in Seahaven Springs, under rainy skies. Cole Whitlow is officially toddling and into everything. Founders Park will never be the same. The queue at the bakery has reached the door. Nobody minds; it is that kind of queue. Fern Gorse fumbled Truman Beaumont's name and recovered it smoothly. Nobody breathed. Nothing bad ever happens here — but something is always going on. The Anonymous Good Deed takes a turn. Goodnight, Truman. In case we don't see you: good afternoon, good evening, and goodnight.
