Close Encounters

I took the bus to the city, since Wednesday is when Crazy Redd has new inventory and I still needed one painting. No luck, since Redd didn’t have anything I needed.

I went back to town and was making my rounds, and I decided to cut down a tree. But after hitting it once, a bee came out. I didn’t want to get stung, so I tried to think where the nearest house was. There was no house nearby, so after dodging the bee for a few seconds, I decided my only hope was to get my net out and take a wild swing. To my surprise, I actually caught the bee! Close call!

Catching a bee in ACCF.Later on, I noticed some bugs on trees. Since it’s June now, there are new bugs out now. I’ve always enjoyed catching the tree bugs, so I wanted to snag a few of them to start off the season right.

As I walked near the lighthouse, I saw something move on the ground…tarantula! I had completely forgotten tarantulas were now in season as well. I took a swing with my net, but I missed and it got me.

I pass out after being attacked by a tarantula.

So I passed out, woke up back at my house, and said enough was enough.

Ruby, Ruby, Ruby, Ruby Soho

I started up the game tonight to the pleasant sound of falling rain. Yes, no watering for me! A new animal moved in tonight, Ruby.

Ruby the rabbit, who just moved into Forest (ACCF).Apparently she’s a rabbit from outer space. She definitely looks a bit alien-ish. Her house is just south of the fountain, in the same spot where Buck used to live.

Remember those two blue roses I have near Scott’s house that I mentioned in earlier blogs? They produced another black rose today! So that makes three black roses in ten days, just from those two blue roses. I think I’ve found a hot spot. 🙂

Gone

Antonio is now officially gone. Bob and Antonio were not only my two favorite villagers, but they were next-door neighbors.

Yo, Jeff, Today's my last day in Forest. Best thing I did here was be buds with you. I might be sweating in a different gym, but I'll always be lifting for you! -AntonioAn empty lot (where Antonio lived) next to Bob's house in Forest.Not much was going on in Forest today. No rain, so I had to water my flowers. No new black roses today. Chief (who may be my new 2nd favorite villager) told me that Bob and Rhonda had an argument. He said he had to pry them apart! If you know Bob and Rhonda like I do… Well, let’s just say I don’t think it was an argument they were having. 😛

Chief: You hear about the thing with Bob and Rhonda? They had a really big argument.Nook had a 5x point sale, but he didn’t have anything I needed or wanted. (And I refuse to buy items I don’t need solely for the Nook points). I did check my point balance though, and I still have a long way to go before I reach platinum rank.

Jeff, here is your current point status: Rank points: 14,250 P. Total points: 8,250 P.
