As expected, I received Roscoe’s goodbye letter in the mail today.
I believe this now makes Antonio my longest-tenured villager; he’s lived in Forest since Festivale 2023. And speaking of Antonio, I also got a letter from him in the mail today. He is over his cold now, and he sent me a righty desk as thanks for the medicine I gave him.
Over by the museum, I ran into Big Top, who was out looking for bugs. He said the sunny weather is all he needs to be happy. Well, that and his bug net, some bug-attracting spray, and some berry crumble.
When I visited Felicity, she said she needed a photo of herself with a fossil to include with her entry for the “Little Miss Paleontology” contest. She already had a fossil in her house, even though most of it was off-screen. But I took a photo for her anyway. 
But it turns out that she was just asking me to get (another) fossil for her. Luckily for her, I had just come from the museum, where Blathers identified a couple of fossils for me. So I gave her an ankylo skull, and in return, she gave me an arcade machine. I left and re-entered her house to see her new fossil, and I took another photo. Here you go, Felicity.
Back outside, Mint told me that she had her usual Saturday massage, this time with essences of pound cake and chocolate. She said she has to keep herself in sassy shape. 
At town hall, I found a pine table in the recycle bin. It wood make a fine gift for someone.
Two of my villagers asked for new things to say today. For Nana’s greeting, I told her to say “I’m a monkey.” And for Mint’s catchphrase, I asked her to say “it’s minty.”
I noticed that my savings balance was approaching a new million milestone, so I went on a fruit run. I made 10+ trips gathering fruit, and I got my balance up to 66 million bells.
