We drove up to Summerville Monday evening to meet the drafter who will draw up our house plans. My phone and my GPS both routed us the “back way”, which leads to the west of Texas Valley rather than up the major highway (US 27). The nice part of it was that we got a decent view of the west as the sun was setting. It was so dramatic that Leah insisted that I stop to take a picture. This is a panorama using three images I got with my phone. Click for a bigger view.

Unfortunately, the lower part of the sky ended up washed out. It might have been possible for me to get better exposures if I had tried a little harder, but we were running a few minutes late so I just stopped and grabbed the shots.

This made both of us regret not being able to see the western horizon, either at our current house or at our future house.

We made it up to Summerville and handed off my floor plan drawings to the drafter. She told us that if we lived in the county where she lives, my amateur drawings would be sufficient to get a building permit. Not here, though.

It will probably take about four weeks to get our drawings completed.
