Two Campers, Three Cheers

Last Sunday, I made the mistake of leaving an empty spot in my mail slots. That opened the door for Molly to ask me to bury a time capsule for her.

Molly: So do you think you could bury it for me? Please?

I buried it, and now I’ll have to wait (probably a few weeks) for her to ask for it back.

Chevre the goat was camping over at the campsite, so I stopped in to say hello. She’s a cutie. 🙂

Chevre: Hello. I hope it's all right that I've decided to camp here. You have a lovely town.

Down on the beach, I spotted a balloon present flying overhead. I shot it down and found a tumbleweed inside. It must have blown in from far away…maybe even from Saharah’s desert. 😉

Moments later, Jeremiah sniffed it out while it was still in my pockets!

Jeremiah: I smell a tumbleweed. It's yours, isn't it?

He wanted to trade his six-ball tee for it, which isn’t the best deal (for me). But I agreed to the trade anyway, just to be nice.

The next day, I had another camper: Ricky the squirrel. I’ve never been a fan of him; his features make him look angry most of the time.

Ricky camps at the New Leaf campsite.

On Tuesday, Inkwell told me he smashed a rock into a “jillion” pieces. He’s now afraid of his own strength. 😛

Inkwell: I'm starting to become afraid of my own strength... Seriously, bro.

I found Gulliver down on the beach. He told me about a place that was green everywhere you look…so much that it’s called the Emerald Isle. Clearly, that was Ireland.

Gulliver: It's to the point they sometimes call this place the Emerald Isle.

Today, I received Gulliver’s gift from Ireland. He sent me a shamrock clock.

Lolly asked me for a piece of fruit, and I gave her a perfect peach. She loved it, and she rewarded me with some potted ivy. She even did three cheers for our friendship, which might sound really nice. But the actual cheer wasn’t as pleasant as you’d think. 😛

Lolly: Three cheers for our friendship, J-guy! If I poop! If I poop! If I poop!
Um, do you know any other cheers?

Mira also had a request for me: She wanted a butterfly.

Mira: If you see a butterfly, can you catch it for me?

She said she wanted to study its flight to learn a trick or two about fighting! I caught a monarch butterfly for her, although I doubt that it’s going to teach her any new fighting techniques. 😛 Mira thanked me by giving me a scale-print tee.
