Lily Encounters

Late on Saturday night, I found Katie the annoying traveling cat in my town. Beth was kind enough to open her gate for me, so I dumped Katie off at her town Acorn. Now she’s Beth’s problem. 😛

Katie: OK, I'm gonna go see what Acorn is all about!
Thanks, Beth!

While I was there, I got to hear the 6 a.m. music. That’s a song I rarely get to hear! I introduced myself to Beth’s villager Lily, who had an idea for a book called Acorn: Wild World!

Lily: I even have an idea! Doesn't a story called Acorn: Wild World sound interesting?Beth told me that Lily was moving out of Acorn soon (although later she got Lily to change her mind).

Yesterday, I got a bunch of letters with gifts attached in the mail. Wishy sent me a queen, Gulliver sent me a Manneken Pis (peeing statue), Katie sent me a toy camera, and Big Top sent me an office chair! It’s rare to get that many presents at once!

Squishy told me that perfect peaches were the premium item at her Re-Tail, and she opened her gate for me. So I headed over to her town Cosmic–but it’s a newer Cosmic, not the same town I previously featured in a Dream Suite Adventure.

Jeff: Thank you!After giving Squishy a basket of smuggled perfect peaches, I sold the rest at Re-Tail. Reese paid me a whopping 612,000 bells for them all! Thanks again, Squishy!

Reese: Since I'm paying premium for all of these items today...the total is an amazing 612,000 bells! OK?By the way, Squishy and Beth share a New Leaf blog called Cosmic Acorns. Go check it out! 🙂

When I returned home, I put my money bags into my bank account at the post office. My balance topped 76 million bells.

While asking Copper if any visitors were in town, he told me there was a camper at the campsite. I was surprised to see that Lily was inside! Is this the same Lily I just saw in Beth’s town just 16 hours earlier?

Beth stands in between me and Bob as Bob asks me what's up.And then today (August 1st), a message was posted on the bulletin board about the upcoming fireworks. That’s right, fireworks season is almost here. The first fireworks festival of the year is coming up on Sunday.

~ Notice ~ The fireworks show starts at 7 p.m. this coming Sunday! Don't miss it!I found Pashmina sitting on my metal bench, and she told me about a little accident she had. She crossed her legs, her legs fell asleep, and then she peed! Yuck, now I’ll need to hose this thing off before sitting on it.

Pashmina: Arghh! I crossed my legs, and they fell asleep! I peed!I made a trip out to the island for some bug-catching (and little fishing too). I netted over 200,000 bells worth of catches. But still, no Phineas. I really don’t know how I haven’t earned the fish or bug badges by now. I try to catch every random bug I see around town each day, and I catch a lot of the fish each day too. Phineas is driving me crazy.

Luna told me that Mia from SunTown was my most recent dream visitor. Thanks for visiting!
