Day 986
Day 986 in Seahaven Springs, under sunny skies. A heron has taken up position at Miller's Pond and is refusing to be hurried. Ewan Callahan has turned sketching the shoreline into a real part of life. Flo Tidewater is not currently speaking to Lark Ferris. 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.
