Little Wisp, Big Statue

I found Gulliver washed up on the shore today…just one day after finding the same sight on GameCube.

Gulliver: T-the waves... The waves are...guh! Ready th' pool noodles! Zzz...

I helped him out by digging up his five communicator pieces that were buried in the sand. He will be sending me a gift in the mail tomorrow.

Since it rained last night (for the first time in a long time), I had a bunch of new flower buds today. That included a new gold rose!

A new gold rose starts to bud.

Louie wanted to apologize to Tybalt for something, by giving him a gift. So he asked me to deliver it. I agreed to help out, and the gift was a dotted raincoat. I told Tybalt it looked good on him (even though it didn’t). 😂

Tybalt: Whaddaya think, oh banana?

He rewarded me with a flashy jacket.

Wisp was in town tonight, and I found him in a surprising spot: on the eastern cliff above Donkey Kong Country, next to the stone idol! 😛

Wisp looks so tiny next to the statue!

I wished on a few shooting stars, but I missed out on many more. When you’re holding a tool and using the higher viewpoint angle (like I typically do), that means you have to do three things before you can wish on a star: Put the tool away, and change the angle twice. Once you do all that, the star is already out of sight and it’s too late to make a wish. D’oh.

Louie gave me a new nickname tonight, “racer.” I guess it’s better than “slick,” which is what they’ve been calling me. 😛

I’m in the process of making small changes to my fountain area in front of the plaza. I removed the 2nd row of seats, since I mainly had them there for the fireworks festival. That also gives me room to add blue pansies all around the fountains (instead of just on three sides).

But with that said, I’m still not totally happy with it. It still needs something else in my opinion, but I’ll have to figure that out another day.

There will be an entry late tomorrow night for Friday Night Forest. I have a lot of recipes available near the airport, and they’re free for any of my visitors that need them. See you all tomorrow!
