Day 947
Day 947 in Seahaven Springs, under rainy skies. Flo Tidewater slipped on the wet planks down at the dock and is spending a few days in Seahaven General. Fern Gorse is not currently speaking to Edie Gorse. Flo Tidewater is in Seahaven General after they slipped on the wet planks down at the dock. Nothing bad ever happens here — but something is always going on. The Plum Harvest runs into trouble. Goodnight, Truman. In case we don't see you: good afternoon, good evening, and goodnight.
