Hey look, Rumplederpskin!
Me and my friend John took turns drawing this, and decided that it needed to be shared with the world.

Aaaand we added a Gmail subscribe button to the right, so you can subscribe easily with your Gmail-Google account.

Minecraft Server.

Minecraft, as explained before, is a game of survival.

A while back, we started a private Mincraft server, so we could all play in the same world. Build, fight, live. Together! We have put a lot of work into it, and we have created some crazy epic stuff.

Today we are going to give you a tour. (please, click on any of the pictures for a closer look!)
This is our world (all that has been generated so far). This picture was taken during night. Everything lit up is territory behind our walls.
Here is civilization. (Click the link to see a panorama.) Safe from baddies. You can see houses, farm land, mines.
Plenty of coolio stuff.

Now, for the tour from ground view.
We will start with where we started. The Stronghold.

Built on top of a hill, this was the first thing we ever built. I remember the first night. Being besieged by creepers and skeletons. Half the wall was blown up, and we had to find dirt to shove in the holes so they couldn't shoot arrows through them. And so we waited out the night.

We placed a cross in the ground, and claimed the land in the name of Spain! (thank you, Columbus)
... And decorated the place with pumpkins.

Inside we have the bare essentials. Some meat, a work bench, and some tools.
Plus, a secret escape hatch. In case we are besieged and cut off by creepers.





Next up, we have the stairs leading down the giant hill to the valley. Installed so that you don't have to hop all the way up. That takes too long.

After that comes the small church.


Down the road,
we have the housing.


At the end of the road, we have the gates to the outside world.


The whole city is protected by a huge wall, with giant towers.


Outside of the city is the fallen fortress. Another place we stayed. It was assaulted by creepers.
This place was abandoned. Too creepy.





Its taken us many, many hours to build this city. And we are proud of it!

Telescope Time.

For Christmas this year, I got a telescope. (I, Ben) I have been able to run out side at times, and look at some starts for a bit, until I couldn't feel my hands, and had to waddle inside.
As it got warmer, I was able to stay out side longer, and longer. Finding more and more interesting things. Learning more about space every time I went out.

RECENTLY. I was looking around, and decided to see if I could see Saturn at all.
Expecting to see just another white dot, I opened up a star app on the iPod Touch, and used it to find the planet. I focused the telescope on it, and.... What....?
No way. No gangsta wangsta way. You can see the rings!?
This picture is a little blurry, but with your eye, just to give you an idea of how clear and big it was, you could see the space inbetween the ring, and the planet.


Here is a close up picture:
The little lens flare, (Why there are two planets) and also why the pictures are blurry, is because I took an iPod with a camera, and stuck it on the lens and had to keep it really still, and find the perfect spot to take a picture. it took like, 15 minuets.

Just to help you see.



And also,
We added a quick share button right below this post.
