Summer Solstice 2017

The other night, Vivian suggested a new public works project (PWP): the statue fountain!

Vivian: Like a...? Hmm. Oh, I know! A statue fountain!This is what the statue fountain looks like. I know it fairly well, because there are many of them in the infamous Aika Village.

The statue fountain PWP: 88,000 bells.

And I just have to say, it’s about time Vivian suggested a PWP! That’s the main reason I invited her into town, because I needed several snooty PWPs suggested. Well, better late than never. I like the statue fountain, and the price is very reasonable too. So I may consider adding one to Forest at some point.

I received two items I ordered in the mail recently, a blue cap and some sporty shades. I may wear this outfit for much of the summer.

It’s also the longest day of the year, and Animal Crossing: New Leaf celebrates the summer solstice by making the sun stay out all day (and night) long today. What a bright idea.

Isabelle: Hello, Mayor! Today is the Summer Solstice, so don't expect to see the moon at all tonight!
But the sun being out all day shouldn’t keep the moon from appearing.

She handed out some ladder shades for the occasion. But I was already wearing some shades, so I didn’t need them. Anyway, there was also a standee for the summer solstice at the plaza, so I stuck my face into it.

The extra daylight was confusing Bob, who didn’t know if he should be sleeping or eating.

Bob: Umm... I don't know if I should be waking up or going to bed. Should I be snacking or snoozing right now?

I spotted a balloon present up in the sky, so I got my slingshot out and shot it down. It contained a rocking chair.

As for bank account balance, I’m very close to reaching my goal. In fact, I should reach 100 million by Friday! 🙂

My recent dream visitors have been TamTaj from India, Jestique from Isla, Shyka from Roseoma, and Mayounna from Amy Rose. Thanks for stopping by! 🙂
