Eloise recently asked me for a new greeting. So I told her to say “Quick! Get in my trunk!”
Just as a heads-up, there’s a new seasonal item available: It’s a Venetian carnival mask for the Carnival of Venice. It’s available now through March 1st, for a cost of 2,400 bells.
I went out to Lottie’s island tonight, and I visited the school. I spoke with the teacher (Sprocket), and he told me I should grow my own plumeria as my “homework.” He gave me a white-plumeria start.
Vivian (one of the students in class) told me that she’d volunteer to read out loud, except that she’s afraid she would mispronounce a word. 😛
Back out on the beach, I was surprised to find Leif! He said he was giving a talk about flowers at the school, so I attended the class too. He spoke about hybrids, and he said that I can now use hybrid flowers in my clients’ yards.
After the class, I went back outside. Tucker the woolly mammoth wanted a place to study archaeology; I agreed to help out, and the rest was history.
Tucker insisted on using a forbidden altar, a spaceman ancient statue, and a stone arch. I placed them all outside in his yard. I put the statue on the altar, and made a path leading up to it. I also lined it with bushes. The right half of the yard has a cave and a dig site. I used a handcart, creepy skeleton, a couple of shovels, and several pots and vases that he supposedly dug up. I like how this turned out.
For the inside of the house, I used the dig-site wall, dig-site flooring, a camping cot, a lantern, several pieces of stone furniture, and some more treasures that I’m pretending Tucker unearthed.
Once I finished up, Lottie paid me 9,000 Poki for the job. See you all next time!
Oh my lord that catchphrase Jeff! I love it!
“Quick get in my trunk!” Next time I have an elephant on my island I might make them say that…..
(But nothing will ever beat the one that I am always thinking about which is “trumpet”
