First House Guests Due To Arrive

It's been another fabulous day in Daytona Beach Shores. It did hit 90 today but the breeze was very nice and now the temperatures have dropped. Pleep is enjoying a great night on the deck and is very excited about the arrival of the first house guests.

In preparation for the visitors, Pleep insisted Ed and Peggy dust, vacuum and generally spiff up the place. Plus, several loads of laundry were run through the new washer & dryer. Pleep's favorite feature of the new equipment is the musical notes played at the completion of a cycle. He much prefers the pleasant "ring tone" to the large buzzer noise for most other machines. He said it doesn't disturb his napping.

The guest room is all ready. Pleep is a bit concerned that Kate will have issues getting all the pillows back on the bed and in the right order. Getting the duvet folded properly may also prove to be a challenge. At this point, Pleep has decided not to include the Kapellers in the Ritter House ranking until he meets Kate and determines if she is going to be a regular fan. Rumor has it that Carnicelli is worried Kate may buddy up to Pleep and pass him in the house rankings. According to Carnicelli, "Pleep seems to favor the teenagers. I'm already in a hopeless race against Dan Carvill. If Pleep falls for Kate's charms, he may move her and her mother both up higher than me. I can only hope to stay ahead of Mel Carvill."
