Disappearing Tent?

Late last night, I found my summer camper’s tent. Jane was inside and I played a few games. But then, at midnight, the tent disappeared. Camper tents are supposed to remain in town until 3 p.m. on Sunday, so why did it disappear? I checked all around town to see if it moved. No luck. I saved and quit my game, started again, and looked all around for it once again. It was gone.

So this morning, I tried again. It’s not anywhere. I didn’t get the item I need for my next house redesign, and now it looks like I’m out of luck for another year. Unless I put one of them in storage in a letter at the post office or gave one to another character in town (both seem unlikely but I’ll check at some point). This is a major bummer. Can anyone explain this? I don’t understand why the tent would have disappeared. If it is a glitch, why didn’t the tent return when I started up the game again? If anyone can provide any insight in the comments, I would appreciate it.

Rhoda Out, Queenie In

I got a goodbye letter from Rhoda, so she is now gone.

Rhoda's goodbye letter.I went to go meet my new neighbor Queenie. She has a really cool chess themed house.

I started the preliminary decorating of my upstairs for my next house redesign…which is still a very long time off. But I wanted to at least get it started. I think it looks really cool so far. Sorry, no pictures of it yet. I always like keeping my house designs a secret until I upload my annual house tour video on Youtube.

Done With Aerobics

I woke up early this morning to attend the summer aerobics. I got my 14th stamp, which means I’m done! Tortimer gave me the aerobics radio, so I can do the aerobics in my house whenever I want.

You've met your goal!Using the aerobics radio in my house.Later in the day, I went to visit this weekend’s summer camper. It was Vladimir! Vladimir was a long-time resident of Forest, and I miss the old grump. He used to live where Ursala lives now. Anyway, I played a few of his games but didn’t win anything I wanted.

Vladimir: You're not coming in here expecting me to cook for you, are you?

Update: Here is a video that shows the highlights of this year’s morning aerobics.
