Robot Hero

Midge used her catchphrase in an unusual way today: She said she forgot to eat lunch, for lunch!

After checking the recycle box at town hall, I realized I had finally accumulated a total of 30 rusted parts. That, along with the rocket recipe I recently learned, meant I finally had everything I needed to make the robot hero!

I made one, and it’s big…3 by 3 spaces. So it was hard to find a place to even put it down! But I temporarily put it on the beach, just to take a look at it. It’s really cool, and it shoots lasers out of its eyes!

I actually don’t have any immediate plans to use it, but I will keep it in storage until the time comes to roll it out. 🙂 (Out of curiosity, I checked the selling price at Nook’s Cranny: 250,000 bells!)

More good news came in the form of Jolly Redd’s ship being anchored off the north shore. He had a fake serene painting, a fake detailed painting, a warrior statue I wasn’t sure about, and a real mystic statue. Naturally, I went with the sure thing.

I also bought an anthurium plant and plastic canister from Redd, since they were color variations I didn’t already have in my catalog.

After leaving his ship, I got a Nook Phone notification for meeting a new Nook Miles goal. It was the “True Patron of the Arts” achievement, and I earned 1,000 Nook Miles for buying my 20th piece of art.

As for my obstacle course/race, it’s slowly coming along. I’m adding a theme to each obstacle (or set of obstacles). I still have some things to figure out, and I also have items to order and designs to make.
