Even though Katie didn’t get on the train with me yesterday, she still sent me a letter today. She said she hopped on the next train and she thanked me anyway. Along with the letter, she attached her picture.
A few days ago, I realized I haven’t been getting the gem rock in a while. Then it hit me: When I got my golden shovel, I started using that instead of the silver shovel. And you need the silver shovel if you want gem rocks, so I put the gold one in storage and started using the silver one again. It paid off today, as I got my first gem rock in quite a while.
Since the gem rock gave me two gold nuggets, I also grabbed one out of storage so that Cyrus could make me a piece of golden furniture. But Molly saw my gold nuggets and wanted to trade a shirt for one. Sorry Molly, but no.
After giving my nuggets to Cyrus, I watered flowers around town. I also built a snowboy, and he was perfect this time.
When the time came, I returned to Re-Tail. Cyrus turned my nuggets into a golden woman. I already had a golden woman, but thanks anyway.
I spoke with Agent S, and she said she was trying out some new makeup techniques. I don’t think anyone can tell the difference when she’s always wearing that helmet of hers.
Later on, I saw that Tiffiny was opening her gate for some tours. So I headed over to her town Auctus, and it’s looking great as always.
Julio and Alex were also there. I love how she has the windmill behind the bench like this.
Once we got to the island, we did a bunch of tours, including a few bug-catching ones.
We also did an elite balloon hunt, better known as a falling-in-pitfalls tour.
I did pretty bad in the tours overall, especially the bug ones. The only tour I did well at was the ancient fish encoun-tour, where I tied with Tiffiny for first place. After several tours, I guess someone had to leave and they disconnected instead of returning to shore and leaving through the gate.
When I got back to Forest, I noticed the northern lights overhead. So I took a few pictures of them from various spots around town.
