Spring Cleaning, Car Cleaning, and Windsocks

In the world of Animal Crossing, May 1 is Spring Cleaning Day…which is one of those (very) minor holidays. If you catch Tortimer by the wishing well, he will give you a dump model. And that’s about it, other than animals mentioning the fact that it’s Spring Cleaning Day.

Emerald: I hope you're doing a good job cleaning your place out, Jeff.I was tired of wearing the mint gingham, so I went in Nook’s and bought a checkered shirt.

Timmy: Would you care to try it on? Also, early May is when fish-shaped windsocks will be flying where some of the sign posts usually are.

Windsocks blowing in the wind.I made my way to the island, where Ankha also referenced it being Spring Cleaning Day. I did the usual Animal Island thing and got two new island items, the life ring and ukulele!

Ankha: Spring Cleaning Day used to be called The Great Annual Dust Bunny Roundup.I was about to call it a day when I remembered Gracie was supposed to be in town today. After asking Copper where she is, I went to acre C-4 to wash her car. I know a lot of people have trouble pressing the A button fast enough to clean her car perfectly and get the Gracie fashions, but I do it at least 95% of the time. I guess playing button-mashing games like Mario Party in the past gave me quick fingers. 😛

Anyway, I got the shirt circuit. If I had remembered Gracie would be in town when I first started, I wouldn’t have bought that new shirt from Nookington’s. Oh well.

Gracie: Oh, it's spotless! Nice job, darling.Gracie: I'm through with you! Shoo!
