Reached Summer 11 (the Luau), Getting close to Mastery in fishing, currently at level 9. Got about 69k in total earnings, with my current sum being 15k. I recently got a coop, but haven't fully crafted it yet. Fishing is carrying my economy atm, farming isn't so hot since I only purchased 50 strawberries in Spring and missed the Speed-Gro... meaning I am sort of lagging behind in farming. At least I have a Iron Watering Can to make watering what little crops I have faster.

Slowly getting the Vault done, usually I depended on the Tea Saplings to do that, but I realized fishing works about as well, if not better, considering Pufferfish, Sturgeon, Super Cucumbers and even Catfish are around in Summer. Clearing the mines really gives me that flexibility. Getting the Red Quartz early by chance really does wonders for you.

So, I decided to go and start that beach farm I'd been thinking about, planning to focus on fishing and ponds. Turns out I actually quite like the layout - the one patch available for sprinklers is plenty good size, and you don't have sprinklers to begin with anyway so at the beginning planting on sandy soil doesn't much matter. And I like the little forage area. So farmer Max (decided to also play a male farmer this time) began his journey on Perdu farm.

I wish I could start a new beach farm save, but I know that would make me abandon my current save before reaching my goal for it. One thing I'd do different would be to utilize the retaining soil from the supply crates rather than just let it pile up or sell it.
