There had been a lot of rumors floating around that Ty Pennington and his gang were staying at a local hotel, getting ready to suprise a lucky family.Well today it happened. I was sitting at the computer and a call came over my police scanner, a call for a police escort. That escort was for the bus that you see on the show, and they were headed to Geneva,NY. Thats the next town over from me. This is a big event for us and I am going to try to get some pictures this week. I'm including a link so you can see some of the excitement. This link should take you to a page where there are several more links and several articles about it.


News page


This link should take you to a video of the bus pulling up to the house. This is not my video. Its off the news website.
