User Info: DontHoldBack. After hours spent searching for a Nether fortress, i finally found one earlier today. Unfortunately, my portal is at x = -6, z = 29, and the fortress is at x = 397, z = 199. I'm hoping to turn the blaze spawners in this fortress into exp farms so having the fortress that far away from my portal is so inconvenient.
Traditionally, Columbus Day Weekend is Peak Fall Foliage. September and October the Maine weather is usually perfect for touring the coast or heading into the Maine lakes region and the mountains to see the spectacular birches, oaks, maples and other deciduous trees whose leaves turn gorgeous fall colors.
Fall colors occur from early September through about the third week of October with maple colors peaking the last week of September into the first week of October. The next week the golden peak season occurs. Rainfall and temps affect both when the colors occur and how long they last, so it is variable each year. Starting Labor Day, I will provide weekly fall color reports with suggested tours each Thursday.
