Flower Fest is still underway, with tomorrow being the last day. Poor Tortimer was getting tired from standing outside all day.
When I spoke to Rod, he informed me that shamrocks don’t count as flowers. Actually, he responded as if I was the one that told him the news.
In the museum, Blathers had some new dialogue for me. He said that keeping the museum open 24 hours a day is a ferocious work schedule, and of course he’s right about that. But he said that when the museum is empty, he sneaks downstairs for some coffee and a wee break.
After Blathers identified two fossils I dug up, I went downstairs too. But not for a wee break, but to hear K.K. perform. He played K.K. Dirge for me.
Next, I visited Puddles, and she said she bought a gift for me! But when she went to hand it to me, she couldn’t find it. She left it at the store! Sounds like she never really bought it for me in the first place.
After finishing my rounds, I made a 20,000 bell mortgage payment at town hall and then returned home for the night.
Tomorrow is the last day of the Flower Fest, so I imagine I’ll find out the results the next time I play. See you soon!
The flower fest is now underway. Before I got over to Tortimer for the full explanation, Big Top was telling me that flowers bloom brighter when they hear good jokes. He warned me against telling any “groaners.”
Static let me know that Sunday is the last day of the flower fest. He told me to keep it in mind while I’m losing.
I then made my way over to town hall, where Tortimer explained the event to me. He said that this week, Forest residents will transform the area around their homes into the garden of their dreams. On Sunday, he will judge the gardens and give the winner the title of Green Thumb.
He then gave me a white pansy bag, to thank me for letting his heart’s garden bloom…with arteriosclerosis.
After finding today’s money rock and picking up my bells, I heard someone fall into a pitfall. It was Static! I didn’t even put that one there, it was just the day’s random pitfall.
When I visited Kiki, I saw that she finally over her cold. About time!
I only found one fossil today, an iguanadon skull. But it was one that I needed for the museum, and in fact, it completed the iguanadon.
Inside, I found a letter from the Animal Crossing team! It suggested playing Animal Crossing for an hour a day to avoid boredom. 😛
Crazy Redd had a tent set up outside of town hall, so I went inside to see what he had. I took a chance on this solemn painting for 3,920 bells.
A note on the bulletin board informed me that the flower festival would be starting up on Monday! It said to buy a watering can and some flower seeds.
At the museum, I got some bad news about that painting I bought from Crazy Redd. It’s a fake! Too bad Animal Crossing doesn’t have a flamethrower tool, so I could burn down Redd’s tent.
I got better news from Blathers when I handed him a fossil to identify. It turned out to be a dimetrodon tail, and that completed the dimetrodon.
After that, I made a 25,000 bell mortgage payment at town hall, and then headed to Kiki’s house. She was still sick (!), so I gave her some medicine for the 5th time.
She’s lucky I like her so much. I wouldn’t buy medicine five times for just any villager. 😛
