  1. Thnaks, daveymars, and I'm glad you are enjoying this series. When I first started to write this story, it was aimed at a few boys I'd been in contact with who had it rough and either endured or were enduring an unhappy home life, so I attempted to give them a fictional retreat where they could escape and feel safe for a little while. It's why I've attempted to keep this story as positive as possible and I'm thrilled you appreciate that aspect.
  2. For you or in the story?
  3. When we got back to the house, I decided to chat with the other adults. Seeing they were sitting around the dining room table, I poured myself a cup of coffee and sat down to join them. “What’s up?” I asked, since they suddenly went quiet. “We’ve just been sharing our observations about today’s visit,” Brandon explained. “Anything I should be concerned about?” “No, we were just talking about it in general. We thought it went fine and those three should fit in very well,” Dad

    Thanks, tor.

    Yes, they're all willing to give it a try, so hopefully everything will work out.

    Thanks, Stix, and this will be interesting.
  7. During the following week, Brandon and I discussed how it might have affected the birthday party if Julie’s three kids were living with us already. After multiple conversations, we finally concluded that it would have allowed us to split the kids into even teams without recruiting Becky. However, it would have made it more difficult for them to compete against the adults, since there would have been a greater number of children, but maybe we could have done it against half of them at a time.

  8. I don't know how I missed responding to James, but I just did.
  9. He will pop up from time to time, but just like in real life, sometimes we lose contact with old friends. Sorry about the delay in the reply, but for some reason I never saw a notification on this comment.
  10. You're going backward, because you've been commenting on Next Generation 3. lol
  11. There are bigots and idiots everywhere.
  12. Xander, I appreciate your interest in this story, but I'm not sure how much longer I can keep it going. This is the twelfth book already, and I might be nearing the point where hardly anyone is reading it. The number of people following the story gets smaller with every book, and this is a lot of work if hardly anyone is reading it. I appreciate those of you who have stayed loyal, but everything eventually comes to an end. I think the title, The endless Story, has already been used. lol
  13. Thanks, Xander. No, Little Ricky (Richard) isn't goofing off, but he can only recommend kids he comes into contact with and feels would benefit by being at the Hotel. Obviously, no one fits that bill at present.
  14. Thanks again, flesco, and I'm sure the visit should prove to be interesting.

    A Strange Request

    Thanks, flesco. No, the family has never rejected anyone. Frankie got kicked out at one point, but after returning and apologizing he was accepted by into the fold. We'll have to wait and see how this works out.
  16. Thanks, tor.
  17. Thanks, Stanley. I'm sure we're all waiting to see how this works out.
  18. Thanks, Brandon. I'm glad that you enjoy my efforts.
  19. Thanks, Wesley. Different areas refer to things in different ways, so I'm glad you figured it out. The transition with the twins and their sister should prove to be interesting.
  20. I called Mrs. Thornton on Monday and she agreed to let us come to the house the following Saturday so we could speak with her children. Brandon and I had suggested this particular time because we felt it would be best to do it after work on a Saturday, since we only worked until noon and wouldn’t have to rush. We would be able to take all the time we needed to discuss this with her children, because Dad, Pop, Dion, and Trey had agreed to cover for us until we got home. It also meant we woul

    You never know what might happen at the Hotel, and I doubt many of the readers expected to see a girl there - other than the daughters-in-law and granddaughters, who are only there on a limited basis.

    Thank you very much for your feedback and I'm glad you're enjoying this series. It obviously took a great deal of time and effort to get this far, so I hope you continue to enjoy the rest of this story.

    Yes, I try to keep you guessing, and I've been updating twice a week, which I attempt to do on Monday and Thursday. I don't want to make you guys wait too long.

    Thanks, Tor, it should prove interesting.

    Wesley, I was wondering how many others may have thought about a scenario such as this, as well as how they're going to react to the possibility of a girl living at the hotel. It should be an interesting journey, and we'll just have to wait to discover her orientation. I'm blad you are appreciating this.
