Wedding Party

Rizzo was crafting in his house today, and I was surprised to learn he was crafting jail bars!

Rizzo: What, this thing? I'm makin' some jail bars.

He taught me the DIY recipe, but he may end up regretting it. Because most likely, I’ll be using those jail bars on him.

It was raining today, and my first blue pansy bloomed. I also have a couple more that just sprouted up and will bloom tomorrow.

My first blue pansy has bloomed.

The Nook Stop had two new seasonal items today, a summer solstice crown and a winter-solstice sweater. I ordered one of each for catalog purposes.

Wisp was in town tonight, so I collected his spirits for him. I asked him for a “new” reward, and he gave me a garden faucet.

Wisp: Here, have... a garden faucet!

The rain had me feeling a bit gloomy, but it helped a bit when I caught a coelacanth. 😛

I took a plane out to Harv’s island, where Reese wanted to have a reception-style party. Two new items were available for me to use, the wedding welcome board and a wedding arch. Unlike in Reese’s previous requests, I was able to bring in island residents this time.

Once I was done, I was able to start the party. It reminded me of a completion ceremony, but it was Reese instead of Tom Nook giving the speech. 😛

Reese: Today we're celebrating the love that my Cy-Guy and I share all over again!

Everybody even fired off party poppers!

When she was done with her speech, you could still watch everyone sitting at the tables. And from time to time, villagers would randomly fire off a party popper during the meal. 😛

After the party, Reese gave me a wedding arch to keep. She’s also going to send me a commemorative Reese & Cyrus photo plate. Even though you can still come back to help more, it sounds like everything has been unlocked now. I’ll just need to figure out which items I still need and buy them with heart crystals.

Here is my latest video episode, including Apple the Moon Hamster.

Have a good night, and I’ll see you all next time!

Pleasant Rizzo?

Last night, I wished on a few shooting stars during Friday Night Forest. Today, I found 12 star fragments and one Gemini fragment on the beach! That’s more than I expected.

Derwin was camping at the campsite today. I was surprised that he looks so different in this game. His glasses are transparent now, and it’s not white around his eyes any more.

Derwin: I'm on a camping trip, trying to meet good food.

When I visited Rizzo, he told me that gardening helps him relax. He even said that he wouldn’t be as pleasant and easygoing if not for gardening. Since when has Rizzo ever been pleasant?? 😂

Rizzo: That's right, kiddo. I wouldn't be so pleasant and easygoin' if it weren't for these green thumbs.

I gave Hornsby my used bubblegum, and he said he would try it on later. It’ll be interesting to see if he really does!

Louie was sick with a cold, so I bought him some medicine. He started to feel better as soon as he took it, and he gave me some bunny ears as a reward.

I used the island designer app to remove the cliff I had my lighthouse on. It was preventing me from reaching fish that appeared there. So my lighthouse is back on level ground once again.

I went to check out K.K. Slider’s show, and to my surprise, I was the only one there! When I asked for a random song, he performed K.K. Waltz for me.

K.K.: Right on. I'm tuned up and ready to roll. This one's called K.K. Waltz.

I made two new catches today: a mosquito and a saw shark. Naturally, I donated them both to the museum.

Out on Harvey’s island, I threw together a quick wedding ceremony for Reese and Cyrus. I got a wedding pipe organ out of it, and that’s pretty cool.

Friday Night Fish

Yesterday, the Nooklings were buying turnips for 144 bells apiece. That may not be a huge price, but it did provide a solid profit. I sold all 1,000 of mine for 144,000 bells.

I caught my first rainbow stag on the beach, and later, my first arapaima in the river. I donated both catches to the museum.

I caught an arapaima! How did it get here? Arapaiknow!

In the southeast part of town, I replaced my bamboo noodle slide with a plastic pool. Agent S immediately stated her approval on the matter.

Agent S: That plastic pool... is some solid placement.
Actually it’s liquid placement. 😉

On Harv’s island, Reese wanted reception pictures again. Cyrus provided two additional items, a wedding head table and a wedding cake. I just threw the room together quickly just to complete the task. 😛

Today, I changed into a six-ball tee I ordered from Nook Shopping, and I bought some green bubblegum at Able Sisters to go with it. But Label was at the plaza, and she wanted to see a theatrical outfit. She gave me a flashy jacket, and I (temporarily) put it on before talking to her again. She didn’t seem very enthused about my outfit (probably because I still had the bubblegum in my mouth), but she still said she would send me a thank-you gift in the mail.

About 10:00, I opened my gate for Friday Night Forest. Timo, William, Ryan, and George came to visit. Most of them starting showing off sharks right away. Too bad I didn’t have one, or I would have joined in too. 🦈🦈🦈

Three of my visitors hold up sharks.

Note: The Ryan was from Eventide, and he is the Ryan I’ve played with in City Folk and New Leaf with before. But then another Ryan joined in (the usual Ryan that comes, from Petal Burg). Since he was wearing a No. 2 shirt, we called him Ryan #2.

Town wasn’t filling up, so I went on with my scheduled tour for my visitors. 😛 Of course that tour led everyone towards a few pitfalls I planted ahead of time, and George fell into the first two.

Sitri soon joined in, and I took everyone over to the jumping pillars. We jumped around, trying to avoid Godzilla’s fire breath. But it was no use; the fire apparently burned off everyone’s fingers! 😉

I had planned a new spot for everyone to fall into holes, but Ryan #1 didn’t want to participate. I’ll have to try it again another time. 😛

At 10:48, Forge joined in and my town finally filled up. We held an obstacle course tournament, since I’m not sure how much longer I’ll be keeping the course up. Forge, Timo, Ryan #2, and I won our first battles. Ryan 2 beat Forge, and Timo beat me in the semifinals…and then Timo beat Ryan 2 in the finals. Timo won a flowing-river flooring as the prize.

I feel so small.

Ryan #1 left, and the rest of us hung out in my house for a while. And a fish ate Ryan #2’s face.

Then we had some changes: Forge left, Valentine joined, William left, and then Sitri left. Valentine suggested a fishing competition to see who could catch the most valuable fish in five minutes. Since there was no prize, I joked that the most valuable fish gets a non-prize, and whoever catches the most fish also gets a non-prize. 😛

After the 5-minute time limit was up, Valentine and Ryan tied for the most fish (eight). And we determined that George had the most valuable fish.

We then decided to play some outdoor hide-and-seek. I was the first seeker; I found Timo hiding behind Lopez’s house, which was fitting (Lopez apparently moved from Timo’s town). I then found Ryan behind Tia’s house…and that was it. The timer went off, and I failed miserably. 😛

Ryan volunteered to be the next seeker. He found me first (I was behind Hornsby’s house), and then he found everyone else except George. But by then, it was 1 a.m., so I decided to end the session for the night.

Special thanks to everyone who posted art or messages on my bulletin board!

Yesterday, I posted my latest New Horizons video episode.

I’ll be back with another entry tomorrow. Have a great day!
