Extreme Home Makeover coming to Horry County! Soon! (Welcome, Loris: house, college)

[Summering]

So it has been announced that Extreme Home Makeover will come to Horry County again.......
Gosh, that was a wonderful experience the last time. I so wished I had a chance to be on the crew.
Oh, but it rained in torrents........huge storms.
The cement had to be mixed a special way for it to set in the cold and rain. It worked and that house rose up fast...
So on Monday we find out who has been chosen for the makeover.
I got to see a glimpse of Ty running in the rain the last time around .....but it was so crowded.
I hope its not too far away so we can peek at the building. The only thing I know is that they will close a road. I hope they don't close it right up to the chosen home.
I'll report back on Monday when the announcement is made.
They already had a pep rally at the college. Perhaps to get volunteers. Those spots usually fill up fast.
Some new excitement headed our way.........
Someone is going to be so surprised and so overjoyed.......can't wait.

The program aired last night. What a wonderful show. It always makes me cry, and this family, in a place near and dear to my heart, was just wonderful.
