Op Cit, Etc.
Spence is on the phone to Admin, back home by himself.
“How’s Santa Fe?” Admin says. “Always wanted to see it.”
“Really nice,” says Spence. “And yesterday I dropped into this very nice bookstore called Op Cit. It’s just a few doors from a witch store, so you can knock off a lot of your shopping needs at once.”
“You’re having fun.”
“Um, yes.”
“Guess I’ll go mow the lawn again.”
Welcome know-it-all dude.

Sante Fe!…SiberH you and your maw should go and hunt down Spencer. He’s at that Witch store it sounds like…grunt!heh!
10:29 am on June 28th, 2012
Good morning Rio
10:32 am on June 28th, 2012
Bah!…Humbug!…grunt!
10:36 am on June 28th, 2012
Goodness gracious someone sounds a little grumpy this a.m.
10:41 am on June 28th, 2012
Fun!…Everyone is out having fun meeting Rebecca and I’m stuck home with Beau and her Mother…grump!sneeze!
10:43 am on June 28th, 2012
Welcome to NM Spence! Santa Fe is a unique place. They call it “The City Different” and it is.
Rio, I didn’t know Santa Fe had a witch store but it doesn’t surprise me. Mom doesn’t recognize the name of the bookstore either, but it has been years since she has been to Santa Fe. When we go to Colorado, we drive around Santa Fe.
We hope Spence has gotten the chance to visit the mountains in SW Colorado he wrote about in The Dog Who Knew Too Much. He also mentioned Durango, CO in that book. We love Durango, but we love the San Juan Mountains more.
A bit of useless trivia…Molly the Husky’s mom once worked for Shirley Maclain in Santa Fe.
10:46 am on June 28th, 2012
What is a witch store?
Good morning all.
10:47 am on June 28th, 2012
Please start baking pies Stover:
Rio, The Rockies have fired their pitching coach of 10 years, but they gave him another job in the organization.
I’m still laughing about Rio’s use of the term, baseball sadists, last night.
10:51 am on June 28th, 2012
Happy birthday Spence!
10:54 am on June 28th, 2012
How about lemon meringue on this hot day…..
10:55 am on June 28th, 2012
…with a graham cracker crust….
10:57 am on June 28th, 2012
Having never been in a witch store, I am guessing on this one Stover. The witches need herbs, charms, potions, books, and so forth in order to practice their witchcraft. Yes, there are people claiming to be modern day witches in NM. We even see bumper stickers supporting witchcraft.
10:58 am on June 28th, 2012
HAPPY BIRTHDAY SPENCE!!
10:58 am on June 28th, 2012
B.Stover: Baseball!
11:00 am on June 28th, 2012
HUH!…How could I have forgotten?…HAPPY BIRTHDAY SPENCER and ADMIN and THE CHARMING MR. ABRAHAMS!!!…wheeze!…Wow! Thats a whole lot of candles to blow out!..heh!heh!
11:01 am on June 28th, 2012
I’m going to be leaving for the first leg of my Big Trip. I’m going to Sam’s house first and will stay overnight tonight. Tomorrow I will have an easy 6-hour drive taking the I-90 most of the way.
Rio – it’s not too late. Be here tomorrow morning!
11:03 am on June 28th, 2012
Thank you SH. That’s really interesting. I’d like to see what “witchcraft” involves for these people.
Another question: I’m not sure what a “baseball sadist” actually means.
I take in Dawson likes lemon meringue! LOL!
11:03 am on June 28th, 2012
Have a good trip Molypop’s Mom! We are glad you are going.
11:06 am on June 28th, 2012
Have a good and safe trip Mollypop’s Mom.
11:09 am on June 28th, 2012
Rio: I had a blast with KirbyTs mom, but I assure you she didn’t have any fun at all. She was polite enough to spend time with me and nod while I talked, but mostly we stared at each other and blinked.
Don’t we have a couple of special birthdays this week?
11:09 am on June 28th, 2012
Bee. Mama says Spencer shouldn’t buy any witches. We already have enough.
Oh wait….the ones we have start with “B”
Anyway – Mama and Melanie are sitting at a Dunkin Donuts at the airport. Rebecca is still in Philadelphia. Seems her plane needed a new part and all the passengers have to chew enough bubble gum to stick it onto the plane.
Hopefully she will be here soon.
And there is a newspaper article about the Big Event on the FRONT PAGE of the Arts and Living section of today’s paper. It is listed as one of the “picks” for weekend entertainment. Woohooo
11:12 am on June 28th, 2012
Card!…I looked in my bag o’ tricks and found the perfect card for Spencer!…snort!…I’ll have to keep searching for those other guys…heh!heh!

Have a good trip, MollysMom. One of us will see you tomorrow!!!!
Happy Birthday, Spence and Admin!
Hello Everyone!
Siber, get thee to Santa Fe!
11:20 am on June 28th, 2012
SiberH!…Just think, this is the closest we’ve ever been to Spencer and on his birthday no less!….Wooooo!
11:22 am on June 28th, 2012
Mama and Melanie: The decision was made to bring in a new plane—we chewed sugarfree gum and hubba-bubba was required for the job. We have switched gates twice as hope to leave soon. As far as I am aware the flight number is the same.
Happy birthday, SQPA!!!
Drive safe all youse who are traveling.
11:37 am on June 28th, 2012
Maggie is traveling today. She walked from her chair through the living room and through the dining room! YaHoo! (~20 feet)
11:48 am on June 28th, 2012
Maggie!…She has moved a helluva lot further than Rebecca has…heh!heh!…snorkel!
11:49 am on June 28th, 2012
Hello everyone! Barb’s brains are scrambled today, due to excitement over her offer. It is now accepted, and closing will be Aug 20th. Barb does not think the buyer wants the 2 goats. Bummer.
Happy Birthday SQ/PA! Also isn’t Dan coming home today? How can Melanie be at the airport?
11:55 am on June 28th, 2012
BARB- YAHOOOOOOO!!!! Congratulations!!
Melanie can be at the airport because her sister is doing the transportation and settling in stuff. And it doesn’t happen until later today.
11:58 am on June 28th, 2012
Congratulations to Barb and Maggie. Now she has to start packing! How long have you lived there Barb?
12:00 pm on June 28th, 2012
Packing!…I remember that….grunt!…It was no fun for anyone and I still can’t find my big plant…sniff!
12:10 pm on June 28th, 2012
Barb, I have been hoping you’d show up on the blog with that good news! We are happy for you! Natasha has done it again, hasn’t she.
Rio, I had the same thought about Spence being so close. I could never find him in Santa Fe. I am not a bloodhound and the city is crawling with tourists this time of year. I told mom if she would just drive me up there and walk me around, if Spence saw me, he’s know it was me. I would be the only Siber in Santa Fe wearing an Iditarod tag.
12:10 pm on June 28th, 2012
Golinka!….How is Melanie feeling today?…snort!
12:18 pm on June 28th, 2012
Stover, I think Rio’s use of the term, baseball sadist, was directed at those, especially Wookie, who was rubbing in the fact that his team was slaughtering the Rockies.
Stover again, I think most of our witches here would say they practice white witchcraft instead of the evil arts. They call white witchcraft, Wicca, I believe. It would be healing, falling in love, fortune telling, welcoming the summer solstice…all harmless stuff.
12:26 pm on June 28th, 2012
Maybe white witchcraft is called Wiccan. I am not sure. Do you guys think I could get one of those white witches to cast a spell that would convince Natasha we are just the best of friends.
Stover, that is an example of something a white witch would do, but I am serious about this.
12:28 pm on June 28th, 2012
OH!…Brother.
12:35 pm on June 28th, 2012
Thank you SH. Fortune telling makes me think of gypsies.
Good news Barb.
I like the card Rio.
12:51 pm on June 28th, 2012
Happy Birthday Spence!
Barb and Maggie: WooooooHooo! Congratulations!
Rebecca: Stuck in Philadelphia! If this was one week later the Prof and I would be there to rescue you!
MollyPop’sMom: Have a save trip and a good time.
All of youse guys fortunate to meet Rebecca have a great time!
12:54 pm on June 28th, 2012
Chili!…I hope Spencer tries some really hot green chili while he is in the Wild Wild West…heh!heh!…That’ll get him going. In more ways than one!…chorkel!
12:54 pm on June 28th, 2012
Siber, Hate to throw this out there but Barb’s daughter Shannon, who is the city dweller, is into Wicca. She says it is earth based, nature based, and has lots of good, environmentally friendly beliefs.
Staff, Barb bought this property in the fall of 2004, when she was still working as an insurance agent. The property had been in the same family for about 50 years, and was very rundown. She worked on it and had people working on it till she moved in, in the spring of 2006. Here is a pic.
.jpg)
12:59 pm on June 28th, 2012
Flight!…How long is a flight between Philly and MA?…snort!…Will Rebecca ever get there, do youse think?…wuffle!
1:01 pm on June 28th, 2012
House!…My friend Loves Barbs house and wishes with all her might that we had one just like it….wheeze!…Maybe next year…sniff!
1:22 pm on June 28th, 2012
Barb, you only added to what I said about Wicca. umm I would guarantee you we have more extremes in Northern New Mexico.
Me, I don’t have a New Age bone in my canine body.
We have always loved Barb’s house. She showed us a picture of it a long time ago.
Barb? Do you know when the house was built?
1:30 pm on June 28th, 2012
Siber, It was built right after the turn of the century – last century. Guess would be 1905.
1:31 pm on June 28th, 2012
Happy Birthday, Spence!
Congrats, Barb! Beautiful house and we’re sure that it will be bittersweet leaving it. What will happen to the goats and chickens of the non-Peaches type? Sounds like you need to do some house shopping!
All you travelers be safe!
G&BB
1:35 pm on June 28th, 2012
Barb and Maggie!!! What wonderful news! We never even got to read most of yesterday’s blog, due to a small crisis at home. So this is the first we heard about an offer. Woo Hoo !!!!
Rebecca should have just met us at Philly, and then we could have driven to Florence, the town not the dog, together!!!
1:41 pm on June 28th, 2012
Thanks Barb, We love old houses. There are no houses like yours here.
1:54 pm on June 28th, 2012
We would be very sad to leave that house B&M. This cannot be easy.
2:16 pm on June 28th, 2012
Patio!…I remember a photo of her little patio out back that was really something…snort!
2:24 pm on June 28th, 2012
Barb and Maggie — that is terrific news, although you are leaving a very beautiful house.
SQ/PA — Happy, happy birthday. No better place to spend it than in the Land of Enchantment.
For inquiring minds, the flight from Philadelphia to Western Massachusetts should be about an hour, give or take a few minutes.
Rio, baseball sadists, hmmm. Anyways, the Rockies are still near and dear to my heart, whenever they play anyone other than the Nationals. And I still wear my Rockies cap whenever I can.
Wookie
2:32 pm on June 28th, 2012
Wookie!…SiberH was completely wrong when he suggested that the new term I used last night, “Baseball Sadists”, was directed at you…snort!…At the time I was thinking of all those out there, and you know who you are, who love to see the Rockies and their fans suffer like we have been this Spring and Summer so far…grunt!…Not You Agent Wookie. I know you have a soft spot for my team and root for them when you can….wheeze!… SiberH was just spreading rumors again….humphfff!
2:43 pm on June 28th, 2012
I was wrong..not the first time. Whatever, I still like the new term, baseball sadist.
2:46 pm on June 28th, 2012
SiberH!…You are one strange puppy…heh!
2:53 pm on June 28th, 2012
I’m not a baseball sadist. Since I’m totally bored by baseball, I don’t care who wins or who loses.
3:08 pm on June 28th, 2012
Stover!…That is very good to hear…snort!
SiberH!…I just realized they will not be showing the game today….wheeze!sob!wheeze…WHY? Why in Dawgs Name will there be no showing of the last game between Wookies team and our team?…sob!
3:11 pm on June 28th, 2012
Oh!…heh!heh!…I can watch it on the computer and use my little headset…chuffle!
3:11 pm on June 28th, 2012
In fact, I’ve been known to tell my brother–when he’s watching a game–that I hope both sides lose. Now that might be interesting.
3:19 pm on June 28th, 2012
Youse guys are right, it is a very nice, charming old house, but it is time to move on. Getting to be a bit much to take care of all alone, and then there are all those grand kids. Barb says the only state she will always be in is the state of flux, whatever that means. I think that means she never gets too attached to her surroundings, only people and companions (like ME ME ME)and doesn’t look back too often when she moves on down the road of life.
3:20 pm on June 28th, 2012
SHE’S HERE! She was wearing her pink SK! We haven’t stopped talking. Melanie is about to steal her to go meet the Pack.
3:31 pm on June 28th, 2012
Yippeee!….She made it safe and sound and Pink…heh!heh!
Game!…So far the Rockies are creaming the Nationals…Yes!Yes!Yes! (sorry Wookie)…heh!
3:40 pm on June 28th, 2012
I bet she took that hat off right away if it was as hot there as it is here.
And Rio,
Alice M. wants to come live in Barb’s house with you. How about it? She will promise not to talk about the Twins.
3:44 pm on June 28th, 2012
Grunt!…Tell Alice I’m busy listening to this awesome game…gruffle!
Rebecca!…I wonder how she is holding up in all the heat and humidity…sniff! …Youse guys make sure she drinks a lot of water!
3:51 pm on June 28th, 2012
It’s 100 degrees here–actual temperature, not heat index.
3:55 pm on June 28th, 2012
Heat index here is supposed to be 105 to 110!
3:59 pm on June 28th, 2012
Barb!…Stover! Welcome to my world…wheeze!
4:08 pm on June 28th, 2012
I don’t like it. We’re breaking records.
4:10 pm on June 28th, 2012
I can neither watch or listen to the Rockies game. GAH
4:29 pm on June 28th, 2012
Wookie, We never did hear how you liked the Bloody Butchers. Were they good? How would you rank them on a scale of 1-10?
Thank Dog, We will be staying at our place long enough to sample the tomatoes!
4:35 pm on June 28th, 2012
Molly’s Mom just picked me up from Jacqueline’s Dog Salon. Mommy dropped me off on her way to work this morning so I could play with the other doggies all day long. Now I need a nap.
4:43 pm on June 28th, 2012
Sammie!…Mission Ride!…snort!…Don’t fall asleep and miss the wagon…grunt!
4:52 pm on June 28th, 2012
Happy Birthday Spencer and all your aliases!
I’m leaving BearSpiritDog’s area and crossing the border sometime today.
Congratulations to Barb and Maggie on the sale of your lovely house and on the fact that you will get to enjoy some of those tomatoes before you leave. But what is to become of the goats?
4:54 pm on June 28th, 2012
I wonder who does the most talking when Rebecca, the Royal’s Mum and Melanie get together. Melanie, videotape that!
4:57 pm on June 28th, 2012
MagPie, when you move will you be working in the bicycle shop like Tyb works in the stores in Ellicottville and Bradford?
4:59 pm on June 28th, 2012
Basil and Sage, we can’t wait to join you, the Corgis, your mom, Melanie, the Pack, Rebecca, and MollysMom!!!!!! Anyone else?
We are leaving here very early in the morning.
5:15 pm on June 28th, 2012
Dawson, The goaties are most likely not going with us, but we are going to try to smuggle Peaches and a few of her closest friends into our new backyard, wherever that might be. Kim our go-to goat/chicken friend will take Sandy and Ingrid back if need be.
Barb’s son Josh says for her to get ready for a busy life, because they want her to babysit 1 day per week for Lyla and Jack, and work at the bike shop 1 day per week. Lyla is smart and quiet at almost 6, and Jackson, at age 3 is a balls-out wild man.

What happened? All we did was answer Dawson, and we get a Double D. Must be her fault somehow.
5:18 pm on June 28th, 2012
It’s 83 degrees here and will go to 86 by Saturday. I love the Lake Erie breezes that we get here. The lake temp is only 68 degrees. I’m going to miss that when I get to Mass. tomorrow.
5:28 pm on June 28th, 2012
Sob!…Tied!…The Nationals have some nerve…grump!
5:29 pm on June 28th, 2012
Heat index 109 here. Gah. It’s a broken heat record.
Barb & Maggie – wonderful news. Your good memories will move with you but we’re sorry the goats can’t.
Happy birthday to PSQA et al and many more (and many more books, please).
Okay, it’s not easy being green with envy because we wish we were in MA with the First Ever Snowhook Reunion, but if you feel the flick of a furry tail, it might be mine in spirit. Enjoy!
Stay cool, Everybody.
5:33 pm on June 28th, 2012
Wooo!…Rockies have edged ahead by one…snort! ….The score is now 10 ta 9…chuffle!…Its a wild one folks!…heh!
5:36 pm on June 28th, 2012
I love Bellinghams’ cool breezes after the heat and humidity of Minneapolis.
Barb and Maggie: Sure. I’ll take the blame for your Double Dawson. Why not? I can relate to the energy of the 3 year old two legged. Bijou Margaret does not stop talking from wake up time in the morning until bedtime.
5:37 pm on June 28th, 2012
Barb and Maggie: The Bloody Butchers are okay. They are a little smaller than we thought, with good flavor but perhaps a bit more acidic that we prefer. We would probably rate them about a 5 or 6 on a scale of 10. Although they are probably still a couple of weeks or more away from starting to ripen (although our 101 degree forecast for tomorrow may accelerate things), the two Cherokee Purple plants are really going gangbusters and have produced a lot of lucious-potential tomatoes already. Those were our favorite from last year and we are really looking forward to them this year as well.
Rio — I see that Colorado just scored again so I think you are now up 10-9, but the way this game is going it could be a 21-20 nailbiter by the time it is done.
Wookie
5:50 pm on June 28th, 2012
Wookie, We would agree with you, the Cherokee Purple was one of our favs too. Couldn’t get it this year, as they were sold out. Hoping the Black Krim will be close. Our opinion of the BB is the same. Was small, and had a good but not great taste.
Paul Robeson plants are doing great, and has always been one of our top 3. Rich, earthy and smokey flavor.
The Box Car Willie and Black Krim both have several good size tomatoes set, so we are anxious to sample those.

Holy S**t! It must be the heat! No more posting till later….
6:28 pm on June 28th, 2012
Before I started staying with the parents I had a year where I grew the Cherokee Purple and the Brandywine. I liked them both, but the Cherokee Purple was a top 10. I would give the Brandywine an 8. One year we bought one called a Pineapple Tomato. I’d give that one a 4.
Mr.Staff swears by the Super Fantastic. It grows well for us and the fruits are not too large (Brandywine) or too small. But it is not an heirloom. It is new.
6:29 pm on June 28th, 2012
Hey, y’all! Mom’s back from her trip to the Big City! Sorry we didn’t let everyone know what was happening, but Mom wanted to make sure she could get vacation time at work and that she’d be able to get a room at Rebecca’s hotel. So we were going to reveal the big surprise on Tuesday night, but then The Royals told about their friend’s death, so Mom decided not to do it then. And then she was going to do it on Wednesday morning, but then she was running around like a chicken with her head cut off (sorry B&M!), and she just didn’t have time.
Mom says getting together with Rebecca was great! She was a little worried that she would drive there — four-plus hours each way — and then they would just and stare at each other and wouldn’t be able to think of anything to say. But not to worry! They laughed and talked for about eight hours straight — stopping just long enough to watch a movie at the Coke tour and eat a few bites at the restaurant. In fact, they talked so long at the restaurant that they were astonished to see they were the only customers there, and the busboys were sweeping up! I just wish she would have smuggled me into the hotel in her suitcase like I asked her to!
Rebecca: Mom says those tummies she gave me were actually from you — thanks! Just wish I could have been there to get them in person — or maybe I should say in dog!!! You saw the pictures of me standing next to the pugs — don’t you think I would have fit just right in her suitcase???
7:07 pm on June 28th, 2012
Kirby, it sounds like your mom and Rebecca had a great time getting to know each other in person. Our mom is so excited to meet so many Plunderers but she had such a hectic week that she is afraid she will be falling asleep early and then youse will know her for the party pooper she is. But so what? She will have met some Plunderers! And the Amazing BDHW !
7:15 pm on June 28th, 2012
OH: Your mom and Rebecca can probably both curl up in a corner someplace — Mom says they were talking until 12:30 or so, and Rebecca had to be at the airport at 4:30 — in the morning! Mom asked Rebecca if she would be able to sleep on the plane, and Rebecca said not a chance, so I’m sure she won’t be any peppier than your mom!
7:18 pm on June 28th, 2012
Hey, Rebecca came to the Lower 48 and missed this:

Whew!…Someone came home from the extrememly busy-place and then had to make supper immediately! so someone else can take a pill and go lay down for the whole night….snort!…This is sort of working out really good. My friend says its almost like having some freedom again once her mother is out for the night…heh!heh!…We are sad there is no game to watch tonight…grunt!
Wookie!…or SiberH! How did the game end. I got interupted and didnt catch the end….gurgle!
8:23 pm on June 28th, 2012
Girls!…I wonder what the Girls are up to right now….sniff!…I also wonder if Rebecca is going to practice her One-Woman show with the Newfs as her audience…heh!heh!

8:55 pm on June 28th, 2012
BTW Barb and MagPie, GOOD NEWS!
Okay, I’m going to have to catch up in the morning. Tired and my face is tired of laughing and smiling. What a great time.
Cheesecake finished. Checked!
Chet The Dog ID for The Royals’ Mum and Dad. Checked!
Bella’s picture with Spence. Not yet. Ran out of ink. Will do in the morning.
Dan home. Check!
Wants to go up and down the stairs at night after taking sleep medication? No way.
Whew. More fun tomorrow!

Rio. The Rockies won in 11 innings, 11-10. That means the series was split 2-2 even Steven. That also means that both of our treat budgets are safe as well, at least for a while longer. Wookie
8:58 pm on June 28th, 2012
Melanie!…Get some rest! I want you to enjoy every minute of tomorrow – are you still drinking cawfee?…heh!heh!…Seriously, take care of yourself so you will be up for all the excitement and fun tomorrow…wooooo!…I swear if this sort of thing ever happens again I am going to Be There…huffle!puffle!
9:00 pm on June 28th, 2012
Wookie!…That is awesome news! Thanks!…heh!heh!…Split evenly is the best possible outcome for that series…chorkel!…I was bluffing and didn’t have the treats to back up my bet..grunt!
9:08 pm on June 28th, 2012
I, along with many other Rockie fans, did not get to see that game. It must have been a good one.
9:36 pm on June 28th, 2012
Congrats to Wookie and Rio. I have no idea what the Twins did today. Mr.Staff keeps me up to date on them.
He emailed me to let me know that AbbietheKitty was annoyed with him last night. She is a lap Kat, but she has issues with skin. If he is wearing shorts she will not get on his lap and risk touching naked skin. Last night he had shorts on and she refused to get on his lap. She stared at him and then she turned her back on him until he felt guilty. He says he had to go upstairs and put on his jeans. She was contented then and deigned to sit on his lap.

Giggle! I think that is all I’ve done since the Royals’ mum and Melanie picked me up at the airport. What a wonderful day! I met the corgis, Sage of the herb kats, Leonard the person not the dog, Golinka’s father and his dog Calle, Zoe and Dan the Man, and the Pack. I have been Newfed! Wonderful! Wonderful, I tell you, wonderful!
Leonard and Amalia dropped me off at the hotel and guess what Leonard said as they were leaving? Lock the doors!

Rio: Would you like to see a photo or two from the past two days before I got to my cold, hard bed with no baseball toys?
Below is a picture of KirbyT’s mom and I. We opted to take a photo from the ankle down.

We are guessing that the feet with less color belong to the Alaskan, unless her feet have been tanning while in the southern climes.

Bella – GO TO BED!
What a wonderful time we all had! Gilly fell in love with Rebecca and spent some time on her lap. Callie actually moved her big white butt into a trot to come and meet her. Sage, who usually hides until new people go away came and hung out and even gave her head butts.
Our Gramp is totally charmed. It was such a fun time all day!
And tomorrow will be even better! The radio guy postponed the interview until VERY early tomorrow morning. then Mama says they are going to go out for breakfast, and then bring Rebecca back to the hotel to SLEEP for a couple hours.
Then, a Howler (as yet to be designated) will arrive, and MollyPop’s Mom will arrive (maybe with a stowaway) and then everyone will come here for dinner before the Big Event. And you know what THAT means! We get tummies from EVERYBODY!!
Woo hooo
Does it get any better than that? Well – it would be better if every Plunderer could be here – but you will be here with us in spirit!
