Hornsby’s New Home

Late last night, I made some more changes to my Sudden Valley area. I dug down to ground level to make it even more of a valley. I even dug through the back wall of the mountain, so that you can see the ocean from here! I covered the area in sand, I put up a Sudden Valley sign, and I even picked a spot for a ramp going down. The only problem is that I forgot I had to pay the ramp off, so it’s not done yet. But here’s a picture of it so far, taken in the daylight today.

Sudden Valley is now a deeper valley.

Label sent me a tailors ticket and a Labelle coat in the mail.

I was surprised to find Rizzo in Nook’s Cranny today. I think it’s the first time I’ve seen a villager in there shopping. He was looking at a magazine, and he said it wasn’t grabbing him.

Rizzo: The magazine ain't really grabbing me...

And yet, he still stood there reading it. He even said “this ain’t half bad.”

Rizzo: This ain't half bad.

Kicks had a stand set up at the plaza today, and I bought some power boots from him (mainly just to be nice, and to grow my catalog).

Kicks: Welcome, chum! Have a look. No rush, no rush at all.

I found Claudia singing….to a tree! She was literally facing a tree and singing! I had to adjust the camera to see her, but the tree was directly in front of her! I guess that’s one way to start a singing career: Start by singing to just a tree, and then branch out later.

I don’t think the tree was impressed; it was throwing shade.

Hornsby has officially moved into Forest, so I made sure to say hello to my new friend. He becomes my 2nd favorite villager now, just behind Agent S and ahead of Tia. It’s nice to have one of my old GameCube buddies join me here! 🙂

Hornsby: Man, we gotta hang out sometime! I've got so many snacks to share with you, Jeff!
I can’t wait, schnozzle!

Right at 7:00 tonight, shooting stars started appearing in the sky. I made sure to stop to wish on a few of them.

A few other notes about today:

  • Tia was sick, so I gave her some medicine. She gave me a diner apron in return.
  • Sable gave me some more patterns.
  • I used my tailors ticket to buy a mohawk wig.
  • I paid off my new incline, so it will be completed tomorrow.

Have a great day, and I’ll see you next time. I hope your islands are progressing well! 🙂
