Last Sunday night, I ran into Marina. She said she was going to spend the rest of the day painting pictures.

That’s a great hobby for her, because she can use her own ink! 🐙

I went bug-hunting, and I continued hunting even after Nook’s shop closed for the night. I was planning on saving everything for the next day, until I realized…it was flea market day! So I put a few bugs on display in my house and waited for someone to come in.

Fang wouldn’t pay 15k or 13k for a scarab beetle, but he agreed to buy it for 12k. That’s double what Tom Nook pays! Nice! I normally don’t sell things on flea market days, but I now see how useful it is during bug-hunting season.

On Monday night, Antonio gave me a Corinthian post that he had for me, up his nose. I know his nose is big, but I didn’t think he could fit one of those up his nose! 😛

On Thursday night, I listened in on a conversation between Mint and Nana. Nana told Mint that she looked especially lovely today, so she asked how much she spent on cosmetic surgery to look that good. 💀

That made Mint furious, understandably. She said it was the face she got from her parents.

Poor Biskit was sick with a cold lately, so I gave him some medicine on Thursday and again tonight. Get well soon, Biskit!

Tonight, I headed over to the Roost for K.K. Slider’s Saturday night show. I asked for a random song (as I typically do), and he performed “K.K. Dixie” for me.

I later spotted a tarantula on the shore, and even in the water!

I approached him slowly, and he wasn’t moving. So I was able to catch him without much trouble.

Big Top asked me for a fossil, so I gave him a fern fossil that I dug up. He rewarded me with a library wall, and he said he felt like he had just eaten a big tub of happiness! Aww!

But despite all that happiness, Big Top was thinking about moving out of town! However, I kept talking to him until I was able to change his mind. He’s staying. 😮‍💨

Just today, I posted the latest City Folk Moments video! Check it out!

The first (of five) fireworks festivals is tomorrow night. Have fun if you’ll be playing, and enjoy the show! 🎆

On Monday night, Antonio told me he was planning on moving out of town. But I told him to stay, and he agreed…even though he didn’t exactly like me telling him what to do.

In another part of town, I saw a scorpion casually fall off a cliff, and act like nothing happened! I was able to walk over and catch it without a problem. That’s not something I see every day.

When I ran into Antonio again, he was talking about something his friend showed him, that made him jealous. Um, what?

Fortunately, he was talking about a saw stag beetle. He wanted to buy one that I had in my pockets, and I agreed to sell it to him for 1,644 bells.

Down closer to the beach, I saw a bug on a tree…but it was obscured by another tree, and I wasn’t sure what it was. Biskit was walking close to it, so I tried to catch it before Biskit scared it away. It ended up being a golden stag (my favorite)! I’m glad I caught it in time!

My Monday night bug hunt netted me 250k in an hour of playing. As for my savings total balance, I’ve decided not to give updates on it until the summer is over. I’m certainly going to meet and exceed my original goal, and I already have another goal in mind. But I’d rather have it be a surprise at the end of the summer.

On Tuesday night, Monty thought he was sharing some shocking news when he told me that Fang was raised by wolves. And normally I’d accuse him of telling me a pack of lies. But Fang is a wolf, so this isn’t exactly surprising. Nice try though, Monty. 😛

My Tuesday night bug hunt netted me another 300k in an hour and a half.

I didn’t play again until today. At the Roost tonight, I asked for a random song. K.K. performed “K.K. Dirge” for me. It’s a little early for spooky music season, so I’m not sure if this was just a grave mistake, or if K.K. is getting a monster head start on Halloween.

Marina was the latest villager to want out of town, but I told her to stick around. It took several attempts, but I was eventually able to change her mind.

I went on my third bug hunt of the week tonight. In a 70-minute session, I earned over 210,000 bells.

If you enjoy the bug hunting videos, I posted a Wild World one earlier today. Check it out if you’re interested, here.

The July Bug-Off was held today, but I played too late in the day to participate. However, Nat was kind enough to tell me the results. Big Top was the big winner, with a 68-point jewel beetle. Congrats, big guy!

Mom sent me a somewhat gross letter in the mail. I don’t need to hear about mud in your toes, Mom.

I also received a letter from Marina, who is now over her cold. She sent me a ranch tea table to thank me for the medicine I gave her last week.

When I ran into Nana, she said she just got a jade econo-chair, and she thought I was looking for one last week! Of course I wasn’t, but she tried to say she got me mixed up with some other human. She hasn’t even met another human, so that’s not possible. 😛

At the Roost, I asked K.K. Slider for a random song. He performed “K.K. Western” for me.

After that, I did a little bug hunting. In the southwest corner of town, I spotted two goliath beetles right next to each other! That doesn’t happen too often with rare bugs!

As I continued hunting bugs, I also saw a nighttime balloon present. I shot down and found a toilet inside!

I played for over an hour, and I ended up making about 215,000 bells on the night. Even though this was my only bug hunt of the week, I’m still well on place to exceed my summer savings goal.

Anyway, I recently posted a Youtube Shorts video (one minute long) that’s a montage of many of the special characters in ACCF. I hope you’ll give it a watch:
