I just got a new pet mongoose! I named it Mrs. Snuggleface. Mom says I can keep him if I look after him and brush him every day. She said if I get sick of him, she knows a really nice farm where he can go and live, so there's really no pressure.

Yesterday we went exploring in the haunted cave over by Old Man Cummings's farm. He got mad and yelled at us for trespassing, but we managed to grab a neat platinum coin before we left.
