Today is the day that Keaton professed his love for me!
Well actually, he was just teaching me the showmanship reaction. But close enough. 😛
In older games, the challenge with flowers was keeping them watered so they didn’t die on days without rain. Fortunately, that doesn’t happen in New Horizons. But there is a different problem that has arisen: Removing the many unwanted flowers that pop up after a rain! I had a ton of them today, mostly on my paths.
And unlike in previous games, you can’t use your shovel to kill flowers! So it’s kind of a pain having to clean them all up. (But don’t get me wrong… this is still a much better “problem” to have than having to water hundreds of flowers every day!)
Despite the summer solstice and Father’s Day occurring this weekend, neither one was mentioned in the game. In earlier games, you would receive a letter and a gift from Dad on Father’s Day. And the summer equinox had its own event in New Leaf. But they are just two of many conspicuous absences in New Horizons.
After I was done with my daily tasks, I started working on my new attraction. I think I’ll just call it a race. Even though it may have a few simple obstacle course elements, it’s different. For one thing, it’s not a one-on-one thing; it’s something everyone can compete on at once. I won’t reveal what it is until it’s done and I’ve had my first race on it. Hopefully that will be later this week, but I still need to order (and make) some more items. 🙂
In case anyone was wondering, my daily glowing spot appeared near the sumo ring today. It was another “clear” spot with nothing else around.
Note to whoever left a 10k bag of bells in town on Friday: Please don’t. I may use this as the prize for my first run of my upcoming race. But in the future, please don’t litter in Forest, even if it’s bags of money. 😛 I’m a stickler about wanting to earn my progress in the game on my own. If you really insist on giving me a gift, feel free to leave me pitfall seeds or party poppers. Those are fun things that don’t impact progress in the game, so I don’t mind them at all.
Just
Have a great day, and I’ll see you all soon! 🙂
Hi,Jeff. I’m Lola,and I have a town named Sun Beach. My villagers are Mira,Cobb,Nibbles,Stu,Marina,Mitzi,Megan, and Naomi. Your blog really helps me learn a lot about animal crossing,thanks!
Hi Lola! You have some nice villagers. Mitzi is one of my favorites! I’m glad you’re enjoying the blog and learning something new. 🙂
Thanks!! I plan on having Fang move in soon,and I’m trying to kick Naomi out. Recently,I got Cobb’s photo! I was so excited!
Nice, I like Fang too. Congrats on getting Cobb’s photo!
I’ve also been making paths with the Custom Designs app,one square at a time! Also,I dreamed of your island. Love it and love your villagers!
Yes, flowers wilting was very annoying in my opinion and I’m happy that isn’t a problem here. The only thing I wish would make cleaning flowers easier is if they would just stack in your inventory!!
Yeah, that would be a big help if flowers would stack! Weeds stack, so why not flowers?
this Saturday you should try Farewell or Drivin’
I really enjoy reading your blogs Jeff! 🙂
Thanks! Glad to hear it! 🙂
Timmy and tommy I think either rang me or sent me a letter but they did Tell me about the new seasonal items
Sorry Jeff I was the person that left the money on Friday. I went a little overboard with betting on the table tennis tournament lol. I’ll make sure I don’t give you items that add progress next time!
Once in New Horizons it rained for 5 consecutive days! I was getting rid of flowers for a hour I had so many! Have a great day!
