Holiday relaxation



Husband and I have been more or less playing Minecraft for the majority of our day for the last two days and this one looks like it could be another one.

Husband built a grand central station in the sky and we've been building tracks to popular locations on our map. It's crazy because his grand central station is in the southernmost part and two of the places he wants tracks to are in the northeast and west corners of the map (For those who don't know, Minecraft maps are long North to South but narrow from East to West). It's been super fun, though. I'm getting a LOT better with the controller and can actually run in a straight line now (important when the other option is falling to your death and searching for all the items you had before). That is super progress.

PS - this is all survival mode (but the last few days, it has been on the Peaceful setting, so at least I don't have to worry about creepers). We are not using any cheats at all, we are just going crazy with the grinding

States I've been in

So I'm a slacker and have set a goal to post more stuff on my blog. Pictures motivate me lots more than words, so if I don't have anything to say, I think I'll have to try to have a picture to post instead.

Anyways. A map!

These are the states that I have visited.
Green = states where I have lived
Blue = states I have visited repeatedly (and spent the night)
Orange = states I have spent at least 1 night.
Pink = states I have driven through or had a layover in

I've slept in my car between Texas and Utah several times, but I don't think it counts enough to make NM orange...
