Last night, Vivian asked me to make a delivery to Rolf. I tracked him down and handed over the gift. He was impressed with the gift-wrapping on the item. When I returned to Vivian, she acted as if only a savage would return an item without wrapping it and including a hand-written note. 😂

When I played today, Isabelle met me outside of my house. After all, today is a special day in Forest…

I was taken against my will to the event plaza, where Isabelle held a ceremony to honor me. Rolf, Big Top, and Porter also showed up. Isabelle fondly remembered the day 6 years ago when I planted the town sapling (now the town tree).

She tried to give me a gift (another sapling clock), but my pockets were full. So she said she’d send it in the mail.

Then she told everyone to whip “IT” out.

So we all fired off some party poppers. Yay!

After the event, Agent S asked me to catch an ocean fish for her…in her own, weird way.

I caught a zebra turkeyfish for her, and in return, she gave me a zebra turkeyfish folk shirt.

Once I was done playing for the day, I deposited my money into my bank account. My balance reached 113 million bells.

As for my annual slideshow of my best pictures of the year, I hope to have that done at some point over the weekend. Keep an eye out for it!

My recent dream visitors have been Adria from Mist, Sunny from Zenithia, Joyce from Utopia, and Greta from Shirley. Thank you all for stopping by, and have a wonderful day!

Update for Throwback Thursday: If you want to take a look back at the first few minutes of Forest, here is a video I recorded back in 2013:

It has been a week full of holidays and events in Animal Crossing: New Leaf. It started on Sunday (Easter), with Bunny Day. I only played for a bit, and it was late at night, but I spoke with Zipper T. Bunny and acquired a few pieces of egg furniture.

Monday was Nature Day (aka Earth Day), and Isabelle gave me a cool globe for the occasion.

I went over to the face-cutout standee and hugged a globe with a headless girl.

And today was Weeding Day (in America, at least). I met up with Leif at the event plaza.

Weeding Day is all about pulling weeds and cleaning up town. But Forest didn’t have any weeds to pull, so I automatically qualified for the Town Cleanup Prize. Leif gave me a violet screen, which he claimed to make himself.

I put it in my house, and it looks really cool. I like it.

When I checked out Claudia’s house, I was quite surprised at what I saw. Well, my first thought was that her house is really crowded. But then I noticed not one, but two pieces of gorgeous furniture!

For a moment, I wondered if Merka had really spoiled Claudia. But that didn’t make sense, because she didn’t like Claudia either. However, it turns out that Claudia came that way. Merka just failed to steal the furniture before she moved out. Now I’ll have to try to steal it for myself.

My villagers were talking about Weeding Day, and Lolly thanked me for taking care of the weeds.

If you haven’t yet seen my latest video, please give it a watch. It showcases 43 Animal Crossing villagers (and islanders) that still haven’t returned to the series. It includes a punk rocker sheep named Woolio, Pigleg the pirate pig, and a curiously-named anteater called Nosegay. Maybe we’ll see some of these animals return on Switch!

My recent dream visitors have been Angie from Moss, Marlene from Wien, and Ryan from Hyrule. Thanks for stopping by, and have a great weekend!

I recently found Donkey Kong Al camping at the campground. I wouldn’t want him to live in my town, but I’ll allow him to camp here. 😛

I spotted Lolly tonight, which is not something I do every day. She called me a bell-pincher, she asked me for a new catchphrase, and I talked with her over and over. Until she got tired of chatting with me, of course.

I went over to Club LOL, and I found Daisy and Velma there. Velma said she was there looking for a microscope? She’s not a very good liar.

I asked K.K. Slider for a random song, and he performed K.K. Tango.

Back in town, I saw that the entrance to the Reset Surveillance Center was open, so I dropped in for a visit. Resetti wasn’t there, but I tried to chat with Don. But even though I talked to him five times, this is all he would say:

Tomorrow is Bunny Day. I don’t plan on taking part in the festivities, but good luck to you if you’re giving it a go. Check out my Bunny Day Guide if you need any help, or want to check the full list of egg furniture to make sure you didn’t miss anything.

Also, I saw on the bulletin board that Weeding Day is coming up on April 26th (Friday) in America. I’ll have to try to remember to check it out.

My recent dream visitors have been Luke from Luke’s, De from Mag Mell, and Allison from Linville. Thanks for stopping by!
