Before the Greench Farm household had started their day, the ghost of old Pepper was still grassing outside. They really should get a new horse, as soon as finances allows for it. But they also need to pay down the bank loan that is still too big after Godrian paid out his siblings, and second story of the house is still not decorated.
First thing on old Archie's agenda was to check on little Bonny. She is a nice baby, not too loud, and not totally in her own world either. The old crib is the same that Archie used as a baby - yes, it's very old...
Godrian, owner of Greench Farm, has taken up painting since long. He just about knows how to put together a portrait, and he found it was time to secure a memory of his old dad.
... who found it more worthy to upgrade the toilet to self cleaning. A hammer sure can make wonders ;-)
Then Archie and Godrian tended the plants outside, while Godrian's wife, Richelle, spent a few hours in the office to establish her new business. The idea is to export produce from Maccaroni Island to town of Galucca.
The produce was pretty sparse, maybe the cold day was to blame.
Godrian is a member of the local Village Council. Representing the southern region, where farmers reside, the climate changes was expected to be debated... Their leader, Yamir Redward, had something else on his mind...
Yamir holds nearly 50% of those stocks, and although he also owes lots of money, the raised land value is definitely good news! Also Richelle at the farm owns a few shares, so Godrian is of course more than interested.
Yoseph Y. Hedgewall represents the stock owners on the Village Council.
Yoseph and Alex are brothers, Reynar is Alex' oldest son, the Inventor.
Few simdays ago it was announced that anyone currently descending from Bianca and Bolan Blumington, can not leave the island due to blue alien DNA.
They kept on debating what possibilities town of Galucca could offer, and how that would help or not help, those who could never leave the island. Godrian would like to visit the other world, but is not allowed.
Back on the farm, Godrian kept tending the garden, with some more or less useful assistance from old Archie. Richelle joined them a little later. She had called a few Galucca companies. She got new glasses yesterday, but often forget to use them as she isn't totally helpless without.
After selling today's crops at the Greench Market, Godrian stopped by at the Town Square, where the festival was rigged by festival mixers yesterday. He noticed a plant he never saw before, but he knew it was a pumpkin. He harvested one plant, intending to grow it on the farm.
Later at night, the portrait of Archie was done, and up on the wall in the room that is meant to be their livingroom. Walls still miss paint, and the furniture could need replacement, but they sort of ignored the room this far. They need to pay back some bank loan before spending money on interior.
Archie had inspected the portrait.
The Greench mission was actually started by Archie when he was much younger. The idea was to keep good quality crop stored safely, in case of volcanic eruption. Godrian has not paid it much thought, quite yet.
How funny, they all expected Bonny to have red hair because both Richelle and Godrian have redish hair, but instead she got blond hair with blueish roots, exactly like Godrian's late mom, and Archie's great love for a lifetime.
If Archie can live pass 100, he should be a good babysitter...
Please hang on - another chapter will be posted next Wednesday!
