I received Curt’s goodbye letter in the mail today, as expected. But on the way out, he called Forest a stink hole! Shots fired! And now I’m really glad he’s gone.

Bright Nights week is here, so all of my villagers’ homes (and most of the cedar trees) are now decorated with festive lights. Filbert’s house had a decorated tree right next to it, which I always like to see when judging the homes.

Robin was still sick with a cold, so I gave her another dose of medicine. But despite her illness, she was somehow able to decorate her house quite nicely. That included a tree behind her house and one next to it.

Meanwhile, my outdoor villagers asked me to pick their houses and tell Tortimer about it.

But the indoor villagers don’t seem to mention it at all. That included Frobert, who had four decorated trees surrounding his house! I couldn’t fit them all on-screen at once, though.

To me, that was clearly the best in town. The lights were un-frog-gettable! So I went over to town hall to speak with Mayor Tortimer.

After telling him the lights in town were gorgeous, he asked me for my choice. The first page of options listed Truffles, Frobert, Marina, and Robin. I accidentally chose “Someone else,” which took me to the next page of the list. However, something apparently went wrong, because it again listed Truffles, Frobert, Marina, and Robin (instead of the other four villagers)! But I went on and selected Frobert to make him the official winner.

I went back to Frobert’s house to tell him the news, but he again made no mention of Bright Nights at all! Does he even know he won? It didn’t seem like it! It’s quite different from last year, when Bones was thrilled (and appreciative) to win! Well, congrats anyway, Frobert! 🐸
