Month: November 2013

Last night, I noticed a giraffe banner on the outside of T&T Emporium. That must be Gracie’s logo to let people know GracieGrace is inside.

Today, I got a StreetPass house that had a wall-mounted camera in the bathroom. Interesting…

Back in my house, I decided to take a picture of my green piggy bank.

Yesterday, I took inventory of my modern wood room and saw that I was missing a modern wood stool. So I started looking through all of the model homes in the Happy Homes Showcase until I found one. I ordered it last night, and it arrived today. I customized it and placed it in my modern wood room. So I now have the full modern wood set, which will surely boost my HHA score. Will it be enough to make me top 150,000 points? I’ll find out tomorrow.

When I talked to Skye, she told me she used to have a neighbor named Axe Man! Uh…he sounds friendly…

Crazy Redd was in town today with three paintings and a statue. Two of the paintings I already had in the museum, so I took a chance on one of the other two. I bought this neutral painting.

Tammy asked me for a new catchphrase; I told her to say GameCub.

And today was the day that the town hall got remodeled! This is my new modern town hall:

That picture of my modern town hall has also been added to my town page. I went inside to trigger the completion ceremony.

I still need some of November’s new catches, so I did a little fishing and diving. Eventually, I caught my first sea cucumber.

I also caught a scallop, and Pascal popped up and asked me for it. I gave it to him and he gave me a vintage telescope in return. He then started talking about Santa Claus…

That’s all I have for today, but I’ll be back with more tomorrow. Have a good night and a good day tomorrow, everyone!

I got a letter in the mail from the post office today. They congratulated me on saving a million bells in my account, and they sent me this piggy bank.

On my way over to Re-Tail, I dug up a rare mushroom. It’s worth 16,000 bells!

I spoke with Molly and she told me she was going to move out on November 10th!

I quickly talked her out of it, because she’s not allowed to move out. Neither are Aurora, Big Top, or Rolf. The others, I may let them move out after they give me their pictures. But Tabby and Tammy are welcome to go at any time!

Anyway, I had my piggy bank customized with emeralds. I wanted to see how it looked.

It looks better from certain angles than others, and this picture doesn’t quite do it justice. It looks nicer in my sleek room, though.

I had a gem rock instead of a money rock today, and two of the gems were gold nuggets. I also had one in storage, so I took the three of them back to Re-Tail to be turned into furniture. Cyrus made me a golden dresser again.

I will share a trip I’ve been using for money lately. Other than the gold nuggets, which I save for furniture, I sell all my ore at the flea market part of Re-Tail. I sell them for 7,500 bells (same as my superb coffee beans) and the animals have no problem buying them at that price. It’s a lot better than selling them for the usual 2,000 bells apiece.

Benedict was still sick today, so once again, I bought him medicine. I took this picture as he flipped.

You may remember that I said once I saved a million bells and got my reward for it, I would put in a new public works project. I looked through my list tonight and decided to renovate town hall. Lloid was actually inside of town hall.

I went outside and took one last picture of my town hall as it currently exists.

After withdrawing around 400,000 bells from my bank account, I paid off the project immediately. I’ll have my new modern town hall tomorrow. Isabelle and Lloid went crazy with excitement. I had to fight back the tears. (Just kidding).

I’ll be back tomorrow with a look at my new town hall building. I hope to see you then. 🙂

Late last night, I decided to take the train to another town. This was partially to sell all the perfect peaches I had accumulated lately, and also to test my connection. Fortunately, I was able to travel to Tiffiny’s town Auctus. I gave her a few of my perfect peaches, and she offered me a basket of perfect pears.

While I was there, I introduced myself to Flurry the hamster.

I also had a drink from the fountain.

I saw two stumps by the bridge, and Tiffiny told me the animals will sometimes sit on them.

While I was there, I also met two other visitors, David and Krista (I hope I’m spelling that right). But after a little while, I returned to my town and ended my night.

Then today, I saw that there was a new SpotPass home in the Happy Homes Showcase. It belongs to Cesar from Tijuana.

His main room was futuristic and it looked pretty nice.

The upstairs was a rec room, and this skeleton figurine stood out. I don’t think I’ve seen it before.

Interestingly, those were the only two rooms in the house! It seems a bit odd for a SpotPass home to only have two rooms, but oh well.

I returned to town and Benedict was seeing double…and then quadruple!

It turns out he was sick with a fever. I made a mental note to buy him some medicine, but first I went to Kidd’s house. He asked me to catch him a football fish!

I haven’t even caught one of those for myself yet! But I continued my trek around town, stopping in the campsite to see today’s camper. It was Lobo the wolf.

Soon after that, I headed up to Main Street. Luna told me that Khori from K City was my most recent dream visitor, so hello to Khori if you’re reading this! In Nook Homes, Lyle told me that my house score was up to 137,467 HHA points. I’m getting close to my goal of 150,000.

Next door at the post office, I donated some bells and I reached one million bells in my bank account!

I bought Benedict’s medicine and delivered it to him.

I then saw Phineas walking around, so I went up to him and asked for a badge. He gave me the Avid Bell Saver badge, which clearly is a result of saving a million bells.

Before I finished up, I was determined to catch two football fish: one for Kidd and one for the museum. While I was on the beach, I found a lost item. But the football fish were my top priority, and eventually, I caught them both.

I donated one and gave the other one to Kidd. He rewarded me with a pine chair. (I was hoping for his picture, naturally). Before long, I found out that the lost item belonged to Molly. She rewarded me with a blue flannel shirt…exactly like the one I was wearing.

That’s all for tonight, but I’ll be back with more tomorrow! In the meantime, I’ll leave you with this slideshow of New Leaf pictures taken in the month of October:
