Instead of the money rock, I had a gem rock today. I think it’s the first one I’ve had in a couple weeks or so. Unfortunately, it didn’t yield any emeralds or gold nuggets.
At the event plaza, I happened to look up at my town tree…and it’s bare! Yikes!
I found a lost item (a mitten) down on the beach, and I began asking my villagers if it belonged to them. I was hoping it belonged to someone I still needed a villager pic from. But those hopes were dashed when Molly said it was hers. She rewarded me with a pink velvet stool. Just what I always wanted.
If you’re wondering why I was hoping for emeralds when I mentioned the gem rock, it’s because I’m in the process of customizing modern furniture with them. I originally kept the items in my back room, but today I got rid of my spooky set in my main room and started putting the emerald modern stuff in here. It’s not finished yet, but this should give you an idea of what it will look like:
I decided to take a trip out to the island again tonight, and I went on a hide-and-seek tour. As soon as I began, I immediately found Jambette! That face is hard to miss.
I found all four animals with 3:33 remaining and scored a gold Tortimer award and nine medals.
I then did some fishing, bug-catching, and diving before returning to the mainland. After selling my catches, I shook a tree and a bee came out! I’m usually pretty good at catching the bees in New Leaf (unlike other Animal Crossing games), but the bee stung me this time.
Kidd was nearby, so I talked to him. Of course he commented about my face (saying I looked wild), but then he did something completely unexpected. He gave me medicine to heal myself! I had no idea animals would do that! How cool is that?
