Modern Clock

Today, the money rock gave me gems instead of money bags once again. This is the third time. (So take a good look!)

Ore from today's gem rock.I spotted Phineas in town, and he gave me a Skilled Diver badge.

I got the Skilled Diver badge! It's proof I've found lots of things in the sea!He also gave me a Good Samaritan badge for helping out my neighbors a lot.

I got the Good Samaritan badge! It's proof of how I never turn down a request to help!I now have a total  of six badgers badges. As I continued my walk around town, I saw two of my favorite animals fishing on the river bank, on opposite sides of the bridge. How cute.

Aurora and Molly fishing in the river.I heard a balloon present above, but it was no ordinary balloon present. It was a silver slingshot!

A silver slingshot floats by on two silver balloons.I shot it down, and now I can start shooting two pellets at a time.

On the bulletin board, there was a message from T.I.Y., advertising an extremely rare wall-mounted monitor. Sounds interesting. I’ll check it out later.

Important Announcement: Today we have an extremely rare wall-mounted monitor for sale! So rare, it's magic!The fruit Wendy brought me a few days ago really paid off today, as they were all producing fresh fruit! Here you can see two of my lemon trees. Stay away, Shelbyville!

Two lemon trees in Forest.I then saw Katrina’s tent and went inside. Katrina talked about a row of golden model homes. But the key to this fortune was a royal crown. Nevermind. As if I have a million bells to spend on a crown.

Katrina: Royal crown...Not far away, I spotted a new house. Rolf has moved in!

Rolf: Anyway, starting today, I'm a resident of Forest as well!Forest now has ten villagers for the first time!

And back outside, I saw Katt. She wanted me to get her some fresh fruit. I had the perfect fruit to give her: a lemon! Unfortunately, she seemed to enjoy it.

Katt: Mmm, tasty! Can't beat fresh fruit!She even gave me a blue-trim wall as thanks. But enough about that. It was time for the ceremony commemorating the completion of the modern clock!

Isabelle: Welcome to the grand completion ceremony for Forest's vital modern clock project!But the modern clock wasn’t the only new clock I got today. From Ireland, Gulliver sent me a shamrock clock. I hung it on the wall of my museum exhibit room.

Shrunk: The other day, I was walking around and I saw an older lady trip and fall before my very eyes!After that, I went into T.I.Y. to check out the wall-mounted monitor. I bought it and tried it out in my house. It’s basically just a TV, but it’s flat and hangs on the wall. And it’s not in color…

So she came over, only to find that Harriet did not give her an option for color contacts. I tried it myself and got this message:

Harriet: I'm booked with appointments for the time being, so I'm afraid I only have time to do your hair right now.Apparently, you can only get color contacts in your own town (when the gate is closed). It seems weird that visitors can have their hair done, but not their eyes.

And before I ended my night in Forest, I showed Wendy my modern clock. I noticed that it looks a bit like a guillotine, so I asked Wendy to help me get Katt into it. 😉

Jeff, to Katt: I has guillotine.But I think Katt knew what we were planning, so she quickly headed off to another part of town. That’s all for tonight, but I’ll be back with more tomorrow!
