Badge Update

Late last night, I made a quick dream visit to Anville, which is Olivia’s town. She has changed things up since theĀ last time I visited. I didn’t stay long, so I wasn’t really taking pictures, but I did take one. I noticed that she has two bridges close to each other. It actually looked nice being able to see the next bridge up the river.

Two bridges in Anville.The town is quite nice, and the dream address is 6900-2923-1084 if you want to visit it.

Today, I got a letter in the mail from the snowboy; he sent me this snowman bed. Even if it looks more like a snowman coffin.

The snowman bed.Big Top tried to tell me he was moving out of town on February 9th, but I quickly convinced him that he was mistaken. I went to Tom’s town to get a bingo number, and he glitched onto/into his bench. He threw at beans at me as I sat there.

Tom throwing beans at me.I was tempted to collect the beans and get a stew going, but I didn’t. Tom saved the game, and then he died.

Tom passes out on a bench.A couple of his friends came over to visit, but Tom purposely disconnected when he discovered one of them took some perfect oranges without asking. Back in Forest, I saw an igloo at the campsite and I found Flo the penguin inside. Thankfully, she didn’t try to sell me car insurance.

Flo: Hey! You're from Forest, right? Nice to meet you! I'm Flo!As I was watering flowers, I spotted Phineas! I had no idea what to expect, but he gave me the Balloon Master badge! That’s the gold one, which means I no longer have to waste my time shooting down any more useless balloons! Woohoo!

I got the Balloon Master badge! This makes me an elite balloon hunter!To my surprise, he actually had a second badge for me too! This time, he gave me the Catalog Maniac Silver badge for collecting over 50% of the items in the game.

I got the Catalog Maniac Silver badge! It seems like I've got a TON of stuff listed in my catalog!This seems like a good time to post my updated badge screen, so here it is:

My badge collection as of February 4th, 2014.I rolled up today’s snowballs to make a snowboy, but he wasn’t perfect today. Just to remind you all, the snow on the ground will be gone on February 25th. So you have three weeks left to collect items from the snowman, snowmam, snowboy, and snowtyke. I have a shot at finishing them all up, but it’s not a sure thing.

Anyway, I went up to the Dream Suite and saw that my most recent dream visitor was Biarna from Naralda. When I was done shopping, I went down to the dock to begin my island hopping for the evening. I met a few nice people, including Marysol and Alexa, who is shown here.

Me and Alexa on a Club Tortimer island.I was able to find one new piece of each set (mermaid and cabana). Now I have 12/13 mermaid items and 9/13 cabana items. However, I have used up almost all of my medals. So I’ll need to do some more tours tomorrow to earn more before I go island hopping for the remaining items.

When I was done touring, I returned to Forest and saw the northern lights in the sky above.
