So it's been a rough month and thought I'd share an update. Hopefully getting back into a normal swing soon. Started off just super busy and then as that wound down had some health issues with my son. It was tough but got it figured out and was able to get him in for a minor

It's funny how finding the original stone diamonds is more exciting than it used to be since they are so rare. The deepslate ones look cooler but I still love finding these. #Minecraft

Needed to clean up the mess of chests down in the cave so we built a deepslate stalagmite storage building. Blends into the cave pretty well and adds plenty of storage for when we are down here and don't want to run back to the base. #Minecraft

Found our first cherry biome and my daughter is completely amazed. We spent probably 20 minutes just running around and staring at it. This is on a new world, and looks like our starter house is going to be cherry wood lol. So far loving Minecraft 1.20 😄

@silentwisperer_ @DeesLooks I did some testing on an old world and at least on mine every one of the random loaded chunks contained a structure, either above ground or a dungeon down below. Seems any structure within render distance loads the chunk.
