We were finally able to upgrade to 1.17!  Here's some raw streams of our expedition to new chunks!

I needed to move the wither cage from the end, so I had to build a new cage by breaking bedrock in the nether. It was VERY complicated.

I wanted easier ways to get dye, so I found a flower forest biome and built a mega-farm.

I found a pillager outpost and decided to combine a bunch of farms around it, including a villager breeder, villager trader, and raid farm. Here's the whole shebang!

Lucas and I heard mob noises under our base...we thought we lit it all up, but it seems we didn't, so here's our adventure. Amazingly, we didn't die the whole time!
