This morning Lisa and I walked down to the supermarket and got some coffee and fresh bagels.

Then we drove out to a couple of new housing developments to look at lots and models and sample houses to check out that plan we’ve been admiring on the web. Exhausting work, but exciting too. We took our digital camera and took lots of pictures of things in the specific house plan.

Well, there’s a very good chance that a year from now we could be living on Bandits Bluff, LV. Right now it is just a dusty empty lot out in the middle of nowhere.

Tomorrow we go back to the development and continue talking about options and stuff.

After a pleasant breakfast, at around midday we drive back out to Spring Mountain Ranch to reserve our lot and figure out what the next steps are. Choosing options and comparing surfacing/flooring materials, mostly. And asking a bunch of questions. More measuring. Then we drove down the road to the pile of dirt and walked around on the site, and took a bunch of pictures. We also drove around the finished houses and compared color schemes, before settling on the one that we wanted for ours.
