On Monday, Wishy sent me my latest reward for wishing on a star: a kiddie stereo. Getting that letter must have distracted me, because I forgot to go stand by the gate after starting up the game. As a result, a UFO flew by, long before I had a chance to get my slingshot out. Oops.

Yesterday, Nookington’s had a spotlight product: I bought the lovely kitchen, if only for catalog purposes.

I spotted a scorpion outside, and fortunately I wasn’t holding my net at the time. So I was able to retreat, get my net out, and catch the creepy critter!

Selling it, along with some other bugs I caught, helped my account balance reach five million bells!

And then tonight, the fireworks festival was underway.

Bob was hoping that the booms of the fireworks would cover up the sounds of his stomach grumbling.

Even Tortimer got out of his coffin chair for the event. He handed me a sparkler so that I could participate in some small way.

I made some more good catches under the fireworks-lit sky, including a rainbow stag and a blue marlin.

Deena was sick with a cold today, so I gave her some medicine. Get well soon!

See you all next time!

Yesterday, Goose challenged me to see who could catch a grasshopper first. It was already too late in the day for grasshoppers to still be out, so I declined his request. So naturally, he called me lame. -.-

Butch was trying to move out of town, but I changed his mind for him.

Today, as I was starting up the game, I was treated to the sight of Deena falling into a pitfall! 😂 I didn’t even bury it there, it was just today’s random pit…so I could enjoy the show completely guilt-free! 😀

There was a meteor shower in the skies over Forest tonight, which included five or six shooting stars during my ~20-minute session. I wished on a few of them, even though you only need to wish on one to get a gift from Wishy.

We’ll see what I get next week!

Today was Bones’s birthday, so I headed over to his house for his birthday party. For his present, I gave Bones a bath. Well, a bathtub.

In return, he gave me a blue tartan (shirt). Goose was also at the party; I hope he doesn’t try to turn my new buddy Bones against me!

I posted my latest Wild World episode today! It shows highlights from June 24th through Bones’s arrival last week. I hope you enjoy it!

Today, Goose informed me that Bob and Peanut were currently fighting. Goose thinks it’s because Bob stole some of Peanut’s flowers!

I doubt there’s any truth to that, bud. 😛

I found a new house in town, and I was pleasantly surprised to find my buddy Bones inside!

Bones and Butch in the same town? Pretty awesome! They’re two of my favorite dogs in the whole series (along with Goldie, of course). But the addition of Bones has more significance than just that: Bones is now the first villager that I’ve had in all five main Animal Crossing games! All five versions of Forest have had Bones at some point!

Bones currently lives in this town and in New Horizons. In City Folk, he moved out just last year. He lived in my New Leaf and GameCube as recently as late 2018. So he’s been in all five towns in under four years!

Over behind town hall, Goose and Olivia were having a conversation. Olivia asked if he was good at lifting things, and Goose bragged that he was the strongest guy in town. 😛

Olivia then asked if he was good at mindlessly following directions like a robot. Goose proudly said yes. 😂

So Olivia told him to come move some furniture…and even her entire house! The funniest part is that she called him a “manbot.” 🤖 Actually, I think that would make him a robot chicken.
