I completed the Stalk Market Nook Miles achievement by setting my island Moonraker at last Sunday, buying turnips there for 105 bells each, then traveling to my husband's island where they were selling for 494 each. We were astonished when we checked!

I had to make 4-5 trips but it would have been a LOT more if the selling price was less. (PS My game, my way. 😌) It was fun and satisfying!

Fell behind on posting again, just got caught back up. (I've really gotta stop writing my reports at bedtime...)
Here's everything from Sunday (8/28) to Wednesday (9/1).

8/28 (Bug-Off! ) (also, short day)
• Since the Bug-Off was today, nobody really stopped to chat, but I still checked in with everyone anyway.
• Bought something new from the Able's that I didn't have yet so that I could catalogue it: a blue Bold Muumuu!
• Participated in the Bug-off! I caught about 7 (weird how all of the bugs seem to vanish on the day of...)
• Checked out some more custom designs.

8/29 (final fireworks show of the season)
• Today's HHA S-rank puts us at 239,270 points, the same as last week.
• Dug up lots of clams to make fish bait.
• Chatted with Kitty (who decided I needed a firefighter's hat), Patty (who was very excited for the fireworks), Mathilda (enjoying a glass of pear juice), Pashmina (chilling at home) and Pekoe (tending to the flowers outside Resident Services).
• Checked out a lot of custom designs to kill time until 7pm.
• Changed into my viewing outfit and headed to the plaza! Proceeded to hype everyone up by convincing them to join me in a dance (Redd seemed more than happy to partake).
• Enjoyed the final show with everyone, Isabelle gave me a bulb bopper, I pulled from Redd's Rally at LEAST 40-50 times (had to clear out some storage space about halfway through), and I took a bunch of pictures.

8/30
• Dug up some more clams to make more fish bait (I planned to track down more Giant Snakeheads today no matter what)
• Chatted with Patty (who decided I needed a Sports cap), Kitty (cleaning up the pumpkin patch by picking up fallen sticks), Matilda (gone fishing), Pekoe (out shopping at the Nook's), and Pashmina (who I accidentally gifted a carp I'd caught earlier; at the very least she seemed to appreciate it).
• Hit some rocks to replenish my iron stores.
• Found a bottle on the beach with a recipe for a stone wall inside!
• Checked out some more custom designs
• Went specimen hunting with 57 bags of bait; caught both of the two giant snakeheads I needed for collectible storage! At the end, I was left with 40 bags of bait (which I plan to use in later hunts for Giant Trevallies and Mahi-mahi).
• Attended Slider's show; he played K.K. Lament.

8/31
• There was a visitor at the campsite today; Poncho the bear cub.
• Chatted with Kitty (enjoying herself at her piano), Pekoe (chilling at home), Matilda (who asked me to catch her a bug that sits on stumps), Patty (taking a break from waking under a tree) and Pashmina (hanging out at home).
• Patty later decided that I needed a do-rag.
• Tracked down a citrus long-horned Beetle for Mathilda (it took a few laps around the stumps on the island for one to spawn), brought it to her as soon as I could.
• Planned to change clothes for tomorrow, but realized my favorite bandana had gone missing, so I had to go to Resident Services and order a new one...

9/1
• Isabelle announced the arrival of pinecones and acorns!
• Recieved a cushion from ingame Mom.
• Gulliver washed up on shore today; it took me a little while to find the missing pieces.
• Patty was thinking about moving away, but I was thankfully able to change her mind (phew!). Afterwards, I chatted with her for a bit, and she decided I needed a floral skirt.
• Chatted with Kitty (out for a walk), Pekoe (crafting a bamboo bench), Mathilda (working out), and Pashmina (chilling at home).
• Caught a Red Dragonfly for collectible storage...but ended up having to sell it to Pashmina. I'll have to catch another one tomorrow.
