Month: June 2021

Tuesday, I received my latest reward from Gulliver in the mail. He sent me (another) kaffiyeh.

Apollo asked about moving to another town, but it’s waaaaaay too soon for him to be thinking about that. Maybe I should clip his wings.

Yesterday, Quillson the duck was camping at the campsite. Even though I like his green color, everything else about him gets a big no from me.

C.J. was in town, and he said it was freestyle day regarding his seasports challenge: I just needed to catch five fish in a row to win. So I caught a tilapia, pale chub, sea horse, zebra turkeyfish, and a black bass to complete the challenge. After selling those fish to him for a fairly small amount, I went home to grab some fish out of storage. I sold him 20 valuable fish for a total of 267,450 bells.

Today, I listened in on a conversation between Apple and Louie. Apple was asking who the snazziest villager was…and Louie said he was. Annoyed, Apple asked who the cutest villager was. Again, Louie said that he was.

Apple got mad, and then Louie said that he was just giving Apple a lesson in improv. Apple said she was just pretending to be mad, but Louie didn’t believe her. Regardless, Apple vowed to find a better improv partner.

Flick was in town, so I grabbed some bugs out of storage for him. I sold him 16 bugs for a total of 84,000 bells.

As a reminder, I am hosting Friday Night Forest tomorrow. This will be the last time I’ll be running my Mario obstacle course. As usual, the blog entry will likely be posted very late (technically Saturday morning in most time zones).

Yesterday, Bones sent me a scented postcard in the mail. But it didn’t smell like flowers or fruit, it smelled like gravy! Bones dipped it in gravy and then licked it clean. That’s kind of gross, honestly. But I guess it is in-character for a dog!

There are a couple of new seasonal items available now, a festival zongzi for the Dragon Boat Festival, and a surichwi tteok for the Dano Festival. You have until June 14th to order them.

Bones was crafting, appropriately enough, a bone doorplate.

He acted surprised that I already knew how to make one, even though I’m the one who gave him the bone doorplate he’s already using on his door!

Today, I ran into Tybalt out on the dock. He offered to buy my garbage can for 312 bells, and I agreed to the deal.

As you can see in that screenshot, Gulliver was washed up on the beach. I woke him up and retrieved the five pieces of his communicator for him. He’ll be sending me a reward in the mail tomorrow.

I did some fishing, and I caught several sharks today…even a flying one. 😉

Even though I don’t need the bells, it is satisfying to catch sharks and other valuable fish and bugs again.

Later on, I found Wisp floating around town. I gathered his spirits for him, and he gave me a black-crown wall…which doesn’t look as cool as it sounds.

Gullivarrr was in town yesterday, and I went diving to retrieve his communicator. I received his gift in the mail today; it was a pirate dress. I didn’t even check the color, I just put it into storage.

It was K.K. Slider night, so I asked the singing dog for a random song. He performed K.K. Cruisin’ for me, Apollo, Agent S, Louie, and Tia. Good song!

Louie told me a funny story about being chased by a tarantula. He said it chased him around the entire island three times! He had such a good run that he high-fived all eight of the tarantula’s legs. 😂😂😂

I found a lost item (a book) on the ground, and I returned it to Apple. She thanked me with a collarless shirt.

The rainy season seems to be here, because it’s been raining almost every day lately. And I’ve had to dig up sooooo many flowers. But at least I caught a coelacanth today.

As I was chopping some wood (and bamboo), my axe broke. And it was apparently my 100th axe broken, because I then learned the DIY recipe for a golden axe!

I went home and crafted one.

That earned me 2,000 Nook Miles. It is my 4th golden tool, and I just have two more to go!

I’m hoping to earn the other two, the net and rod, by next month when the full slate of summer bugs will be available.

I posted a new video today, Animal Crossing Quick Comparisons #3. It’s a short video that presents various comparisons in rapid-fire succession, so I hope you’ll give it a quick watch. 🙂

See you next time! Never Stop Crossing!
