Saving 25 Million Bells

On Monday, Hornsby told me that smelling some good smells can cheer him up when he’s sad. So he said that he sometimes tapes an apple to his face!

Hornsby: Sometimes I'll tape an apple to my face! I can walk around happy, even on the rainiest days!

Jolly Redd was in town, and the only real work of art he had was the flowery painting. I already have that one in my museum, but I bought it anyway to use as a future prize for one of my races.

Yesterday, I heard from Rizzo! Well, sort of. I found a note from him in a message bottle. 😛 It contained a DIY recipe for a standard umbrella stand, which I didn’t need.

I updated my dream while the sun was still out, so you can all check out my King Tut race if you’d like. The starting point is on the southwest beach, and there’s an outfit you can wear for the race. The dream address is 6717-1633-3682. Enjoy your visit!

Today, Tia told me she was thinking about moving out of town. I told her to stay. I may not keep her around forever, but I’m not ready to say goodbye to her just yet.

C.J. was in town, and he had a freestyle challenge for me. I just had to catch any five fish in a row without letting one get away. So I caught an angelfish, a freshwater goby, a crucian carp, a tilapia, and another crucian carp to complete the challenge.

I then went home to grab some fish out of storage. I returned to sell C.J. 345,000 bells worth of fish.

C.J.: Oh, you got a whole school for me? All together that'll be... 345,000 bells. Deal?
Deal!

When I put that money in the bank, my balance topped 25 million bells!

Savings Balance: 25,305,793 bells.

Apple was sick with a cold, so I gave her some medicine. Get well soon, Apple!

July is almost here, along with many summer bugs! I may even do some bug-hunting tonight at midnight! I really want to finish my bug collection ASAP!

Note: I am planning on hosting Friday Night Forest this week. If you’re on my roster, feel free to stop by. But please bring a King Tut mask if you want to race!

And speaking of the race, I made a new pattern to warn racers about pitfall seeds.

Beware of pitfalls pattern on the ground.
