When I played on Tuesday, I received Groucho’s goodbye letter in the mail. He says he’s going to drift wherever the wind takes him.

Saharah was in town, looking for old wallpaper. I asked my villagers for some, but only Felicity and Punchy were able to help me out.

But fortunately, I also had one old wallpaper in storage. So I took the three over to Saharah, and she gave me a tree-lined wall for them.

Today, I spotted a new house in the northeast part of town…where every potential house spot is currently occupied with a house. It’s a jumbled mess up there. But inside the new house, I found that Ed the horse has trotted back to town.

Ed lived in Forest before, back in 2014, when I was still taking screenshots in the standard (4:3) aspect ratio. Ed has never been a favorite of mine, but I don’t hate him either. He’s just a stable guy to have around, I guess.

After a trip to the city to get my hair changed back to normal, I bumped into Punchy behind Nook ‘n’ Go. He was telling me that he recently lost some weight.

I wasn’t sure where he was going what that, but I quickly found out. He said that being smaller would make him better at hiding; he was asking me to play hide-and-seek with him. I agreed, and he gave me ten minutes to find him, Marina, and Felicity. I quickly found Felicity hiding behind Nana’s house.

I later found Marina behind a cedar tree, and then Punchy was trying to hide behind a sign post! You haven’t lost that much weight, pal!

I won the game, so Punchy rewarded me with a mini fizzoid.

I posted a new video today, taking a look at eight things I’d like to see in the next Animal Crossing game. It includes a feature of City Folk that I’d like to return.

See you all next time!

When I played yesterday, I received a letter from Mint in the mail. She thanked me for the medicine I gave her last week, and she sent me a daffodil table.

Big Top asked me to take a present over to Monty for him, and I agreed to help out. That gift was a men’s toilet, and Monty said that Big Top has a memory like an elephant! I wonder why.

When I returned to Big Top, he gave me a robo-floor to thank me for making the delivery.

I visited Groucho, and I saw that he is now all packed up and ready to move out. I guess I played too late in the week to save him, but that’s alright.

He was still in town (and packed up) today, but he’ll be gone by the next time I play. Good luck in your travels, you big grouch.

Today, Antonio told me that Robin and Felicity have been hanging out a lot lately. They wouldn’t tell him what they were up to, but Antonio is convinced they’re making a race car that runs on pound cake. Seems legit.

At the Roost tonight, I asked K.K. Slider for a random song. He performed “The K. Funk” for me.

I rode the bus out to the city, and I was trying to think of a screenshot I’ve never taken before. I’ve probably seen just about everything in this game, right? So this is what I came up with.

Standing behind the plant in the HRA, with just my mohawk (and a bit of my forehead) visible to reveal my location.

I also went into GracieGrace and had a little chat with Puddles. She told me that Gracie’s clothes don’t look good on people with triangular heads.

And now I suddenly want some Doritos.

Mint has caught a cold, so I gave her some medicine yesterday, and again today. Get well soon, Mint!

Today, another fishing tournament was underway. But as Nana informed me, it was a loach-only tournament.

Even though I was playing early enough in the day, I chose not to participate this time. I don’t like these tournaments where you have to catch one specific fish.

With St. Patrick’s Day coming up, I took a bus out to the city and made my annual transformation into Mohawk McClover. Phineas was also in the city, so I asked him for a balloon. Fittingly, he gave me a green one!

I took a break from playing, but I returned tonight. Chip informed me that Monty won the tournament with an 8.4-inch loach. That’s two in a row for Monty! Congrats!

I went over to the Roost and asked K.K. Slider for a random song. He performed “Only Me,” which is one of his better songs.

Groucho told me that he wanted to move out of town.

Even though he’s my least favorite villager in town, I didn’t necessarily want him to leave so soon. He’s only been here for two weeks, after all! I (twice) tried to talk him out of it, but he hasn’t changed his mind. I just wasn’t in the mood to spend all night trying to save him. If he’s still around when I play next week, I may try again. If not, it’s no big loss.

I recently posted my latest City Folk Moments video, so I hope you’ll check it out if you haven’t seen it yet:
