Today is Valentine’s Day and I got a bunch of valentines from the female animals in town.

Here’s a list of what they all sent me:

• Baabara: polar fleece
• Robin: stormy shirt
• Belle: winter sweater
• Maple: yellow bolero
• Sydney: skull shirt
• Candi: daffodil table
• Emerald: kiddie bureau
• Ursala: billiard table
• Farway Museum: ammonite

Oh wait, that last one wasn’t a valentine.

I kept the skull shirt and put it on; I sold everything else. At 5:00, Pete dropped by, but he didn’t have any more letters to deliver, so he took off right away.

Tortimer was at town hall. I was thinking maybe he was there because of Valentine’s Day, but he was only there because he’s going on vacation again. He wants me to turn the lighthouse on every night for a week while he’s gone. Once again, I told him no. It’s not my responsibility!

I spotted Gulliver on the beach and woke him up. He ended up giving me a tiger bobblehead.

I then put some money in the bank, mailed some letters, and returned home. Happy Valentine’s Day, everyone!

I got a goodbye letter in the mail today. Limberg didn’t linger around town very long.

So I went to meet my new neighbor, Fang the wolf.

On my walk around town, I saw an igloo and went inside. It was Kody’s, and he was bragging about how he built it all by himself. Riiiight…

I saw Static and Belle by the river, so I tried pushing them in. It didn’t work. I think I accidentally made some new enemies.

I stopped at the post office to deposit some money. On the way home, I stopped by the train station. K.K. was there, and he sang K.K. Samba for me.

Late last night (after midnight), I started up the game and Tortimer was there, just waiting to scold me for not taking care of the lighthouse.

Jerk! I didn’t drop the ball, you dropped your own ball, you old fart! I told you I didn’t want to do it!

Later on, it was time for the Groundhog Day festivities.

Tortimer was at the wishing well and couldn’t remember his story.

At 8:00 a.m., Resetti popped up out of the ground.

He didn’t see his shadow, so that means spring is coming soon!

Of course it doesn’t mean anything in reality, and even Tortimer knew Resetti was full of it.

Tortimer then said he bribed Resetti to say it. So why would he say Resetti didn’t have a clue what he was talking about? I think Tortimer is the one without the foggiest clue.

Anyway, if you go back to the wishing well later in the day, Tortimer will give you a flower model (but only one time). He didn’t give me one, so I apparently got mine years ago. (I got the other flower models by trading with people). But even though I got my flower model in a previous year, this was my first time attending the 8 a.m. Resetti appearance.

Later on, I went into an igloo and Ursala wanted me to play a game where I had a 50% chance of buying a tea room wall from her for 3,000 bells. Uh, no thanks.

And on that pleasant note, I ended my day in Forest.

Here is my video of the Groundhog Day festival:
