Labor Day

After starting up my game, I noticed Tortimer standing near town hall. Today is Labor Day in the U.S.

Tortimer: Today is Labor Day, sprout.Tortimer gave me a picnic basket. It apparently includes mint gingham wallpaper (yummy) and some inedible blue cookies. Thanks a lot, Tortimer!

The picnic basket from Tortimer on Labor Day.I made my way around town, and saw that Avery was still sick.

Avery: Hack, hack! Cough, choke! Don't come near me! This cold would kill a lesser animal, inside me!I bought him some more medicine.

After that, I noticed Pascal on the bridge. He was looking to the right, as was Deena in the background. So I joined in.

Standing on a bridge near Pascal, with Deena in the background. All of us were facing east.I combed the beach for scallops, but there were none to be found. So I talked to Pascal anyway, just to watch him dive into the river.

Pascal makes a splash as he dives into the river.I caught up with him further down, below the waterfall. He’s lucky I wasn’t peeing off the bridge or something.

Pascal floats by under a bridge.Anyway, I found one new black rose today. Nobody has moved in yet to take Kid Cat’s place, but I bet that will happen soon.
