Groundhog Day 2015

After making a delivery from Octavian to Rolf, I returned to Octavian to tell him the deed was done. Of course, Rolf just happened to be standing right there as Octavian was telling me he didn’t put much effort into the gift!

Octavian: So Rolf didn't like it? Well, I didn't really put in much effort when I chose it, so I expected that...Today’s money rock near Agent S’s house turned out to be a gem rock instead. Good, lots of ore to sell to my villagers at 7,999 bells a pop. 🙂

Banging a gem rock with my shovel.Today is Groundhog Day in America, and Isabelle was at the event plaza to help everyone celebrate the occasion.

Isabelle: Oh, Mayor! Today's the day we try to guess when spring will arrive. It's Groundhog Day!After she gave me a Resetti model, I stuck my face through the Groundhog Day face-cutout standee. I made an angry face as I did my best Resetti impression.

Catch Your Own Coelacanth!

Pete handed me a letter from Nintendo, saying that a red ogre mask will be available at Nintendo Zone locations February 1st through 15th. This item was previously only available in the Japanese version of the game. I hope to pick mine up one day soon.

Pete: I have an express delivery for you from Nintendo.I also received a letter from the snowboy I built yesterday–he sent me a snowman bed. And a letter from the post office told me I earned 99,999 bells interest in my bank account.

A notice was posted on the bulletin board announcing that tomorrow is Groundhog Day (in America). Isabelle will be at the event plaza handing out Resetti models.

~ Notice ~ Groundhog Day is tomorrow! If it's cloudy, spring comes early. If it's sunny, winter stays around.It was snowing in town tonight, and Sprinkle asked me to catch a coelacanth for her. Ha! I flat out told her no. Catch it yourself!

Sprinkle: Please, please, please! Can you get me a coelacanth?Both of today’s snowballs were near the plaza, and that’s definitely a good thing. Some days I’m too lazy to push them all over town. But it wasn’t much trouble today, and I made myself a perfect snowmam. I exchanged six snowflakes for two pieces of ice furniture.

Snowmam: This balance... I'm perfect!It was getting quite late by the time I updated my dream town. But I checked to see who my most recent dream visitor was, and Luna told me it was Rebecca from Fantasia.

I’ll be back with another entry tomorrow. Have a good day, everyone!
