Canaday City Day 16

Got a lot done today.  Well, ok, today and a little bit last night.  Biggest news, I FINISHED THE ISLAND!!!  Or at least I think I did.  as far as I can tell I did.  it is 91x56 in case anyone is wondering.  With that done, I rebuilt Watchtower using cobblestone this time.  Always planned on doing that, just hadn't yet.  I will be rebuilding and maybe expanding the Mining Site as well.I also tamed some wolves for a total of 5 (and two had a baby, so six) and I will probably be expanding Watchtower to make a shelter for them.  or at least extending the roof.

With that done, I built a path out to the island.  It is 6 across and goes down 4 blocks.  why down?  I'll get to that in a bit.  The center four blocks are cobblestone, changing to three blocks wide whine I get to the Farm site.  When I finished it, I dug a basement in Watchtower and dug a tunnel to the path, then dug to the island.  Now I can get to the island with out going outside if I want.  I also started a mine entrance when I mined some Iron Ore I found while digging the tunnel.  will be working on that soon.

Once the tunnel was done, I lit it up and began working on my house.  I laid the foundation of it and then built the path and tunnel to it.  That was fun because I was starting to get to where I added on.  I will be building a basement for my house eventually, and then the tunnel will open into the basement.

Not it's time to work on my house.

Canaday City Day 14-15

Ok, time to come clean.  this is actually stuff from more then two days. Probably more like 5 or 6 days.  But each day was only for a little bit of time.  I think I saw auto save only once or twice during all that time.  that's less then 30 minutes at a time.  So I just decided to combine them all.

I started planting the fields and planted some wheat.  that's it for now, but it is a good start.  and I got a crap load of dirt.  So much so that I am almost done with the island.  Oh, and I found out that I am almost done with the island!  Just one more load of dirt should do it, at least for the island itself.  I need some for some landscaping, but that can wait.  I think I might need to add on a row or two of dirt when I am done, but I'm not sure.  like I said, that would be due to some landscaping stuff.  so it might not be done, but for it basically is.  I'll find out next time I play.

So still a bit of work, but pretty soon I can start working on stuff other then building a big freaking island in the middle of the ocean.
