A typical day

Mornings go to the drawings: site plans, grading, planting schedules and details that show a contractor exactly how a wall meets a path. Midday might be a client meeting or a call with the civil engineer about where the water goes. Afternoons bring a public meeting to prepare for, a cost estimate to check, or a site visit where what got built is two inches off and you decide whether that matters. Deadline weeks run long, and the first warm weeks of spring are always the busiest.
