On July 29th, Mathilda the black kangaroo was camping at the campsite.

Inkwell told me he was considering changing his Splatoon weapon (his Splattershot)! 😆

I gave him a fish on a board, though I’m not sure how that would work as a weapon. 😛 But he liked it, and he gave me a storefront in return.

August 7th was Boots’s birthday, and I gave him an alpine chair for a present. He said it was the best present he’s ever received…in the past few seconds. Oof.

I had another kangaroo camper that day, Walt.

After depositing some money, my savings account balance reached 126 million bells.

Last Tuesday, Rolf said it was time to dig up his time capsule. So I unearthed it, and we found a candy gingham tee inside. Rolf said he must’ve just picked up an item that was lying around the house and threw it inside. 😆

He then gave me that shirt as my reward for digging up the time capsule. Oh joy. 😛

Last Thursday, Cube was fishing off the cliff. That’s something I don’t see very often.

Today, Jeremiah was looking for an item to replace his emperor butterfly. I first bought a watermelon from Harv, but Jeremiah wouldn’t accept it because it couldn’t be placed on something else. So I went to the Nooklings’ shop and bought a chocolate fountain. He loved it!

In fact, he liked it so much that he gave me his photo!

Finally! I took it home and put it on display. 🙂

His favorite quote (on the back) is “Sleep before you leap.” It took me 13 months to earn his pic, but I’m still trying to get Inkwell’s and Cube’s photos. Cube has lived in Forest for two years, and Inkwell has lived here for three years. Maybe someday!

According to Luna, my recent dream visitors include Michael from Galloway, Hunnie from Faith’In, and Mars from June. Thanks for stopping by!

On Sunday (July 23rd), I found a lost item on the ground. I returned it to its owner, Jeremiah. But he said it was just an empty bag!

If his empty bag was on the ground, I’m pretty sure that’s just litter, not a “lost item.” 😛 But he still gave me some stone tile to thank me for returning it.

On Tuesday, Rolf asked me to bury a time capsule for him. I’m not sure these things are worth the effort, but Rolf is one of my favorite villagers, so I agreed to help out.

Last night, I found Gulliver down on the beach. He was talking about tom yum kung and elephants, so I knew he was headed to Thailand. (If you’re ever in doubt, check my handy Gulliver guide.)

Today, he sent me a tuk-tuk in the mail.

Cherry asked me to play a game of hide-and-seek tonight, and I agreed to play. She gave me 15 minutes to find her, Inkwell, and Aurora.

In less than a minute, I found Aurora and Cherry, who both stayed near the plaza.

And in within another minute (or less), I found Inkwell hiding behind his own house. 😆

That was a really quick game! Cherry rewarded me with a tabletop game.

Molly asked me to deliver a gift to Inkwell, so I took over a painter’s tee. Inkwell couldn’t wait to try it on.

According to Luna, my recent dream visitors include Mike from Blyss, Izzi from Forest, and John from Fuz Land. Thanks for stopping by!

On June 25th, Jeremiah asked me to dig up his time capsule. So I grabbed my shovel, unearthed the container, and returned it to the blue frog.

It had a bubble tee inside, and he rewarded me with…what else? The bubble tee, of course. 🫧

Last night, there was a meteor shower in the skies over Forest. So I wished on several shooting stars at various spots around town. 🌠

Jeremiah asked me to catch a red snapper for him, and I did just that. Fortunately, it didn’t take me more than a couple minutes. He ultimately rewarded me with a female mask. 😛

Today, Wishy sent me a letter with a space console attached. That’s a pretty cool item, so I put it in storage. I didn’t want to sell it.

But when Cherry asked me for some new furniture, it occurred to me that I should give the space console to her. So I grabbed it out of storage and handed it over.

I was surprised, but very happy, when she gave me her picture in return!

I’ve been trying to earn her picture for over a year, so this is a big relief. Of course, Inkwell and Cube have been here even longer, and I’m still waiting for theirs too. 😛 But this is a step in the right direction! I took her photo home and put it in my modern/emerald room, next to Lolly’s pic.

Her favorite quote on the back is “One dog barks at something; the rest bark at him.” You can’t go wrong with an astute observation and correct semicolon usage. 😉

According to Luna, my recent dream visitors included Büsra from Galifrey and Milan from Armonie. Thanks for stopping by! I’ll be back with another entry later this month. Hope to see you then! 🙂
