Harvest Festival

I started up the game and found Tortimer outside town hall. Today is the harvest festival, better known as Thanksgiving in the U.S.

Tortimer: It's the most wonderful day of the year, Jeff! I'm talking about the Harvest Festival, sprout!The festival didn’t start until 3:00, so I watered my flowers and then turned the game off until later. At 6:00, I opened my gate. Tortimer was now handing out knives and forks.

Tortimer: Today we feast like kings! Today we gorge like pigs! Today we stuff ourselves like teddy bears!Megan and I hunted for Franklin, collecting the harvest furniture he gives out. At one point, Megan appeared with a beak on. I was not expecting that.

Megan, wearing a beak, speaks with Franklin. Jeff says "TWO TURKEYS!"Franklin had some good hiding places at times, but he also had a few of these:

Franklin the turkey tries to hide behind a sign post.There were a whole lot of beaks walking around Forest: Avery, Amelia, Egbert, Megan, and Franklin. At one point, Egbert seemed to just be standing there watching Franklin. I think he was hungry.

Jeff laughs as Megan struggles to get out of a pitfall.Megan completed her set of harvest furniture and then a little later, she left for the night. I kept my gate open until 9:00 and then closed up shop. I hope you all had a happy Thanksgiving!
