Stalk Market for Wednesday, August 14

AM: 75 Bells
PM: 112 Bells

I caved and sold the few turnips I bought (funny how 2,000 has become a few) for 171 bells over in Kasen. The rest of the week is going to be busy, so better safe than sorry.

Reminder about Obon

Just a reminder that tomorrow August 15 is a holiday called Obon in the Japanese game. I’ll have Kasen’s gates open from 10am-noon PST (GMT-8) and again from 4pm-5pm. Please comment with your friend code if you’d like to come over. Kasen’s friend code is: 5155-3157-1276. Isabelle will be giving out two items randomly, a cucumber horse and an eggplant cow.

And now back to Hanabi.

Bridge woes

When last I blogged I was really excited about my new (pricey) wooden bridge public work. I demolished my left-most fishing bridge intending to put the wooden bridge back exactly where the old bridge was. Isabelle had other plans. I tried asking about it from the north side of the river and she kept telling me it was “so close to a resident’s house” that it couldn’t be placed. But there isn’t a resident’s house anywhere near the area. I tried the south side of the river with the same result. This is the closest she would allow me to place it to its original spot. Note smoke from Julian’s house in the picture. It’s way closer than it ever used to be…

Even though I hate the new placement I told her to put it in. I need a bridge somewhere in the vicinity. But now my plans to put replace the other bridge with a wooden one are scrapped. I don’t want to go through that again. I don’t have a third bridge, but I don’t really know where to put one. If it didn’t cost so much to put it in I’d demolish it and try again. Maybe she didn’t like the campground sign? There’s not really much in that area. So frustrated!

Redd’s Tent

I had Redd today in Hanabi and Kasen. I only got one real painting out of each of them.

Real. There’s no fake.

Also fake. Headband should be blue.

Golden Furniture

I also scraped together three more gold nuggets and gave them to Cyrus to refurbish. This time he gave me something I needed! Hooray!

Trading!

Today was full of trading items and villagers. Thank you Willow for everything! Thank you MerryNoel for the lovely birthday presents! I hope you enjoy Victoria! She’s a cutie.

Last night my husband accidentally told Curt the bear to move. I have a free spot in Hanabi and Quantico and I hope to God he doesn’t move into my towns. I’m not a fan of big bears.

Saharah

Today I had Saharah in Hanabi. I forget what she gave Locke and I forgot to snap a picture, but I don’t think it was anything great. She gave Vella the Moon floor which I already have and an alpine wall. Maybe next time!

Public Works

Julian finally requested something. Not sure that I want it, but I won’t rule it out completely.

Miscellany

O’Hare is sick. Oh no! I doubt he’ll be better in time for my birthday, but I doubt he likes me enough to come over for the party.

P.S. Might not blog again until Monday.

P.P.S. I received a US copy of Animal Crossing New Leaf from Nintendo. Thanks, Nintendo!
