Bob!

Yesterday morning, the Nooklings were paying 172 bells for turnips. I sold all of mine for a total of 400,760 bells. I’m now 28% of the way to earning the final Nook Miles turnip achievement. So this is still going to take years, most likely. 😛

Here’s a few quick notes about yesterday:

  • Gulliver sent me a sombrero in the mail.
  • I broke four tools. 😮 It’s rare for me to break more than three in a day.
  • I sold C.J. a nice selection of fish for 367,500 bells.
The 22 fish I sold to C.J.

After I was done with all that, I redeemed some Nook Miles for some Nook Miles Tickets. So I started visiting some mystery islands to look for a new villager. Tipper the cow was on the first one, and she did nothing to tip the scales in her favor. I simply was not interested.

Speaking to Tipper on a mystery island.

Of course I tried to earn some of my Nook Miles back while on the islands, cutting trees and catching bugs. While going for a diving one, I caught a sea pineapple…while I was wearing a pineapple cap I bought at Able Sisters. 🍍

I got a sea pineapple! Your move, sea pizzas.

The second island I visited was even worse than the first. It had Rodeo; what a bunch of bull!

Rodeo: Oh, hey! Nice to meet you! I'm Rodeo!

He couldn’t last eight seconds on my island. I left this island rather quickly. 😛

I was already getting pessimistic, and I was mentally preparing myself for a random move-in. That is, until I saw who was on the third island: IT WAS BOB!!!

Bob: AH! There's someone on this island!

Bob is one of my favorite villagers in the entire series, so I couldn’t possibly say no to him! I asked him to move to Forest, and he agreed. 🙂

He moved in this morning, and I couldn’t wait to greet him. Welcome to Forest, Bob! 🙂

Bob: We live on the same island now, so we'll be able to play every day! I'm so excited, pthhpth!

I believe has now become just the 2nd villager that I’ve had in all five main Animal Crossing games. (Bones was the first one, and that happened last year.) I’m glad to have Bob around in New Horizons now (if you couldn’t tell). 🙂

Charlise was camping over at the campsite, but even she couldn’t bring me down today. 😆

Charlise, at the campsite: So you live here, right? It's really nice! I'm kinda jealous, urgh.

Later, I put some money into the bank, and my account balance reached 62 million bells. That’s approximately half of my New Leaf total. Eventually it will overtake my New Leaf total, but that will probably be a few years still.

See you next time! By the way, I’ll be posting a new Wi-Fi Moments video by the weekend. 🙂
