Summer Solstice 2019

Lolly told me that she found someone’s diary recently, and the entries were all like this:

Lolly: It said: Day one: Played a lot. Day two: Played a lot today too. Day three: ...Sure played a lot.

Yesterday, Big Top told me that he was looking for some new furniture to replace his coelacanth.

Big Top: It's redecorating time at Casa Big Top. Right now, I've got a coelacanth.

I was hoping that if I gave him some furniture to replace it, he would give me the coelacanth. Re-Tail didn’t have any furniture that was the right size though, and the Emporium only had one: a flat-screen TV that cost 4,800 bells. I bought it for Big Top, and he loved it. But when he went to give me my reward, he only handed over a birdbath. Oof.

Big Top: It's a birdbath! Thank you, skippy!

Today was the summer solstice, the official start of summer in the northern hemisphere. In the game, it means that the sun stays out all night. I chatted with Isabelle at the event plaza, and she gave me some ladder shades.

Isabelle: Hello, Mayor! Today is the Summer Solstice, so don't expect to see the moon at all tonight!

I put the sunglasses on for the day, although I probably won’t keep them much beyond today.

Jeff tries on the ladder shades in Animal Crossing: New Leaf.

It’s always weird to see nighttime bugs out in broad daylight, like fireflies and emperor butterflies.

I caught an emperor butterfly! Feeling blue, Your Majesty?

Lolly wanted me to collect some signatures for a petition: More Rainy Days in 2019. Are you crazy? It’s already been one of the rainiest years I can remember! No way!

Lolly: My latest mission is collecting signatures for my petition, More Rainy Days in 2019.

I found a lost item (a bag) on the ground, so I went around asking my neighbors about it. I eventually found out that it belonged to Molly. She said there was an important recipe inside, and she thanked me for returning it by giving me her cherry.

Molly: In terms of a reward, this is all I have on me right now. I hope you like my cherry!

My recent dream visitors have been Vero from Cascada, Piper from Canoli, Lulu from Oaktree, and Maddie from Solstice (how appropriate). Have a great day and I’ll see you next time!

  1. Dang it! I missed the Summer Solstice!! But to make up for it, Kidd, Pecan, and Nibbles had a surprise birthday party for me 3 days after it happened.
