Jeff's New Horizons Blog

I recently finished up my Halloween area for this year. I made a jack-o’-lantern made out of orange flowers, with some other spooky furniture around the area.

Last night, Wisp was in town and I recovered his spirits for him. In return, he gave me a conveyor belt.

Many of my villagers have been commenting on the abundance of Halloween decorations in town. Even if they’ve been limited to just one area. Static still wondered if I’m going overboard with it.

Today, Pekoe the bear cub was hanging out at the campsite. She’s cute, but I didn’t ask her to move in.

Ketchup was talking about how much she enjoys having pets, and how special they make her feel. Aww, how cute. 🙂

Label was in town, and she wanted to see me in a goth outfit…one that I might wear on Halloween. She’s got some good timing. 🎃 She gave me a vampire outfit to use as an example, but I decided to remove all my skin and just go as a skeleton. 😛

I wasn’t sure what footwear to use, but I tried the antique boots, and they worked fine. Label loved the outfit, and she gave me a Labelle cap.

I posted my latest New Horizons Moments video today, and it shows highlights from the past two months or so. It also takes a closer look at my Halloween decorations (and how it shows up on the map). I hope you’ll check it out. 🙂

Have a great weekend, and I’ll see you all again soon!

On Sunday, C.J. sent me a letter congratulating me on accumulating 300 fishing tournament points. He sent me my gold fish trophy, at last!

I put it in my bathroom, next to my gold bug trophy. 🙂

K.K. Slider was in town for a Sunday show, and I told him I was feeling good. He performed K.K. Ragtime for me, Rio, and Ankha.

I refurbished the exterior of my house so that it’s black and orange for Halloween. Like it?

After helping Gulliver yesterday, he sent me another sombrero today. I’m so sick of the sombreros, though; he sends me so many of those!

Punchy asked me if I was interested in a treasure-hunting game today, and I agreed to play. It’s been a while since I’ve played one of these! Unfortunately, he only gave me three minutes to find the treasure…and I failed miserably. I did eventually find it, behind a tree behind Resident Services…but it was far too late. Punchy didn’t let me keep it. 😛

I shot down a balloon present that contained some ketchup-fried rice, and I knew just what to do with it: I gave it to Ketchup, of course!

In return, she gave me a fortune-telling set. I didn’t see that coming.

See you next time! Never Stop Crossing! 🙂

Flick was in town last night, so I raided my storage for bugs. He paid me 65,250 bells for my 11 bugs, which were mostly wasps and scorpions.

Today, I started up the game and saw that the fall fishing tournament was underway. With the sun about to set, it looked so pretty!

I signed up for the first run, and began fishing. When I tried to take a fish that Punchy was trying to catch (but not trying very hard, of course), he just glared at me. 😆

I caught five fish on my first run, which was good for seven points. To my surprise, C.J. told me I’ve now earned over 300 points in total! Honestly, I completely forgot that I hadn’t already reached this goal! I would have actually tried sooner! 😆

I decided to do another run of the tourney, and I again caught five fish (scoring seven points). C.J. informed me that I had 23 points in my pool, so I redeemed them for two prizes. He gave me a fish-print tee and a fish rug.

Due to the tournament, there was no K.K. Slider concert tonight.
