Before I get into tonight, I just have a few notes about the last few days:
- On Tuesday, Marina sent me a thank-you note for the birthday gift, and she included another copy of her photo.
- Gullivarrr sent me another pirate dress for helping him out.
- On Wednesday, I sold 145k worth of fish to C.J.
- Wisp gave me a merchandise table tonight.
- I sold 11 bugs to Flick for 73k.
- I found a D.I.Y. in a bottle from Ursala, who admitted to being evil. 😉 Surprisingly, the D.I.Y. was actually one that I needed (a gear apparatus)!
Tonight, I opened my gate at 10:00 for Friday Night Forest. It was my first FNF since February! (In New Horizons, at least. I did have one in New Leaf on June 9th.)
Bran came over, and I let him try out my obstacle course. I beat him a couple times, but the last race was very close!
We also raced on my vaulting pole race, visited Marina (and played some music in her house), and I did some fishing. Bran left around 10:40, and my town was empty…but the night was far from over.
About five minutes later, Logan came over and I raced against him on the obstacle course. We also headed over to the vaulting pole race, but just as we were about to start, Jac tried to enter…and we got disconnected.
I reopened, and Logan returned. Nami also came over, and the two of them raced on my obstacle course. They even wore matching yellow raincoats. 😆
Logan won the match, but it was close. Congrats, Logan!
Maria then joined in; I hadn’t seen her in a long time! When she came over by the obstacle course, she saw Nami and Logan and asked if she needed a raincoat too. 😆 (If you’re not aware, some of my previous obstacle courses had specific outfits you needed to wear, like a frog suit or King Tut outfit, etc.)
After I raced against Maria (I won), Xavier also came over. He and Maria also raced, and Xavier had a close, come-from-behind win.
We also had a few vaulting pole races, for the last time before I remove the course in the coming days. Afterwards, we posed for a group photo. Even Ankha joined in. 😆
Shortly after that, Sacky came over, and Bran returned. I was surprised so many people showed up after the night had such a slow start! I must have a lot of night owls on my roster. 10 p.m. is too early for them. 😉
Nami starting putting items on stools, and we were laughing at how the characters kind of jump when they pick something up off the stool. Even though the stool isn’t that high off the ground, our characters act like it is. 😛
We then had a bit of a revolving door. Nami left temporarily, Logan left for the night, then Nami returned. We went over to my house, and I showed everyone my wall of former villager posters. We also checked out the other rooms of my house, some of which I haven’t been in for a while.
Shortly before 1:00, I ended the session. I had a good time! Thanks to everyone who came! And sorry to Jac, who tried but couldn’t get in.
Today, I posted a new video, New Horizons Moments #21. It has my latest highlights from Forest (one-player clips). I hope you’ll check it out.
See you all next time!
