Twin Towns

A new group of children have arrived at the school.

As usual they have all completed their cooking skill and are now working on their blocks.
This group includes cousins Harry and Eric Koffi, Raymond Hansen, Andy Finnigan and Felix Black. Felix is a fairy and is the only one in the group who is not a cousin of the others.

Chris continues to work on her inventing skill - she has very mixed success with this and often seems to find herself on fire.

Vince has returned from work as a ghost hunter and Harriet met him in the foyer. She's been practicing her martial arts. Pepper was enjoying a nice roll on the mat and then greeted her companion witches.

Chris made several miners on the inventing table and she and Eddie Oxley started experimenting with digging and investigating the holes they dug.

The problem with digging holes in annoying places is they have to be filled in.

Eddie keeps on digging holes and filling them in after investigating the ones that can be investigated.

Chris decided to go searching the around the world for metals and gems. She has the collection helper to assist her. She stopped to drink from the fountain of youth when she came across it during her adventures.

Occasionally, Chris decides to try her luck with the miner while out in the world.

Several of the other Sims in the world found her hard at work and were a little upset by the noise she was making.

This is when I discovered Annie Hansen is no longer with Bob Koffi as she has found another Sim she prefers to date.

Dora Lake also showed up to see what was going on. Dora is a current member of the boarding school household and I plan to marry her to Vince before moving them out of the household.

Chris got lucky and dug a hole she could investigate.

She didn't find anything particularly valuable though.

While Chris and Eddie have been digging holes, Harriet has been reading science books. She maxed her science skill and then performed a gene splicing experiment on one of her seeds. Eventually she managed to make a forbidden fruit seed. She quickly planted it down in the basement where it would be safe.

Meanwhile Chris was still down the hole. She found all she could find - which wasn't much - other than trouble.

She was singed when she finally emerged and then she had to fill in the hole.

Back at home Chris had a shower and started digging around the home lot in the hope of finding something worthwhile.

Pepper decided to shred a gnome. The gnome vanished and I'm not sure if it died or just escaped. There are so many of those gnomes in the household now it is hard to tell what's going on with them.
