Well, it wasn't "Move That Bus" but instead it was a Yellow Hummer. :lol:
This was the reveal for the second half of a two part season finale for the Extreme Home Makeover. The first part will be the makeover of Debbie Oatman's house much further upstate, who has 4 adopted sons who are HIV positive. The second half will be of a recreation center on the grounds of a non-profit center in Putnam County. (A little over an hour from NYC)

The first picture is of the Rec Center. I only stayed for the reveal of the exterior, left while they were filming the interior reveal.

I forgot my shirt :bang: but they let me with the group anyway.

In between takes, I was at one point about 10 ft away from Ty who was wearing a grey sweater, light blue jeans. I had the same outfit on, and I said nice sweater, he said same to you, and then I threw him a kiss :wub: He blushed :blush:. He tends to look down a lot, and doesn't put on any airs.
He genuinely liked the kids, hugging etc, even when the cameras were not rolling.
The ribbon cutting ceremony had to be done 3X's because he was so excited and ran up the stairs before the cameramen could get the right shot. :lol:
When you watch the reveal, you'll see the Director of the camp -Heather, running down the hill with some children toward the rec center. If you can see the metal green frog in front of the center, her father made that on Saturday. he manages the grounds of the camp, but was a welder prior to. He did a phenomenal job.

We were not allowed to take pics at the site, but I did manage to blow some off in between security checkpoints on the way to the reveal.
Shhhh, don't tell anyone. ;-)
Those who know what I look like, you may see me at the reveal. I moved around a lot, and because I forgot my shirt, I stayed toward the back.
At one point I was on the edge up front during filming.
Supposed to aired end of May.

Here's the shot I got between security

This was where food service was. It very muddy getting to the site and at one point a woman was full of mud bringing food down to the center for the workers.
