On Sunday, Cherry asked to visit my house. Since I’m desperately trying to earn her photo, I agreed to let her come over…even though I had to schedule the visit 40+ minutes ahead of time. Oof. But I was there on time, and she checked out my house…even if she did say my house smelled like me.

I showed her every room, and she eventually left without giving me a gift.

On Monday, I spotted my first snow flurries of the season!

Inkwell told me that I could warm up by running a marathon.

Yeah, I guess that would warm me up, but there’s got to be an easier way than that, right? Like maybe putting on a coat?

Last night, the Reset Surveillance Center was open…so I dropped in for a visit. Don warned me to leave before something goes wrong. That was rather ominous.

Today, I cleaned up a ton of unwanted flowers around town. Wondering why? It’s because I decided to update my dream town for the first time in months! Luna informed me that 5,489 people have visited my dream (post-update, that is).

She also informed me that William from Insomnia was my most recent dream visitor. Thanks for stopping by!

Back in town, Rolf surprised me with a gift: an arctic-camo shirt. His whole body is basically artic-camo.

And before I wrapped up my game for the night, Cherry asked me for a bagworm. I went around town twice, shaking every non-fruit tree I could find. Eventually, I caught one. But Cherry only gave me a shirt for my trouble (a jagged tank).

See you all next time!

Last Wednesday (November 16th), Saharah was in town. I hired her, and she followed me home.

I paid her 3,000 bells, and she installed a backyard fence and a sidewalk in my main room. They’re both nice, but they’re not really a good fit for this room.

When I visited Cherry, she said she thought my arrival was some kind of daring nighttime raid! Oddly enough, she actually looked disappointed that it wasn’t.

She then randomly blurted out that she loves potatoes. Cherry is one odd puppy.

The harvest festival was held yesterday, and I had a chat with Franklin over at the event plaza.

He wanted to whip up some fruit salad, so he asked me to collect the ingredients for him. Even though finding the fruit was no problem, I still needed to obtain some vinegar. But right as I started to ask villagers about ingredients, the harvest festival ended!

It’s annoying that it ends at 10 p.m. in this game, which is too early for me. Not only am I more of a night owl, but I had already participated in two other Animal Crossing games earlier in the evening. Something similar happened last year, but at least I got to make two dishes then. This year, I completed no dishes at all in this game.

However, Cherry didn’t seem to notice that there was no food to eat. She even called the event a huge success!

On the other hand, Lolly seemed to understand the reality of what happened.

When I put some money into my bank account today, my balance reached 123.44 million bells. So I decided to scrounge up a bit more money, just so I could do this:

According to Luna, Elfo from Fae Land was my most recent dream visitor. Thanks for stopping by!

Have a great day! I’ll be back with another entry before the end of the month.

Yesterday, I found Gaston, the yellow, mustached bunny at the campsite. I already have him in City Folk, and I don’t need two Gastons. And of course, my town here is full anyway.

Inkwell was talking about digging things up out of the ground, and I jokingly asked if he was talking about zombies. It is Halloween season, after all. But he claimed he was just talking about gyroids. Suuuure.

It was Saturday night, so I decided to check out K.K. Slider’s show. But I temporarily forgot where to find him! I was thinking “well he’s not in the museum in this game,” so I headed to The Roost instead. He obviously wasn’t there either. Then I remembered about Club LOL. Oops. But I went there to enjoy his performance of K.K. Salsa, along with my former villager Lily.

Today, Cherry asked me to play a game of hide-and-seek…even though she always gets found right away.

I agreed to play, and she gave me 15 minutes to find her, Aurora, and Jeremiah. I didn’t get off to the best start, because I fell into a pitfall just seconds into the game.

But my luck quickly turned around. I soon found Cherry trying to hide behind the zen bell, which fulfilled her prediction of getting found right away.

About 40 seconds after that, I found Aurora behind the police station.

And still with almost 12 minutes remaining, I found Jeremiah behind a tree near the Roost and the statue fountain.

Cherry gave me an alpine wall for winning the game. (Note: At this point, I reached my photo limit, so I had to move my 3,000 photos off of my 3DS. Oops.)

After starting the game back up, Cherry informed me that Hornsby is going to compete in a golf tournament!

I’m not normally interested in watching golf tournaments, but I’d certainly make an exception if Hornsby was actually participating in one.

According to Luna, Julio from Kawaii was my most recent dream visitor. Thanks for stopping by!

Have a safe, fun, and Happy Halloween, everyone!
