Jasper and I remain working at home during the pandemic. Most of the days spent with headphones on. On the bright side, the headphones act kind of like a hair band to keep my lengthening hair under control. The number of COVID cases is up sharply in Arizona, breaking new records this weekend. Most municipalities in the Phoenix area have mandated faces masks in public starting last weekend. So I'm not mingling with the masses. Sure I could shave, but I enjoy the furry-faced solidarity I feel working side-by-side with Jasper and his unshaven face. 😉

They are world renowned for their varieties and colors!

Dash and Jayme accompanied Jasper and me to the Boyce Thompson Arboretum on Sunday. Dash and Jasper saw fit to critique this sculpture. From his expression, I'd say Dash is a bit aghast. Seems nice to me, but I'm no art critic.

We tried a new park Sunday called Desert Breeze. Bit of a bust, I must say. It didn't live up to its marketing. Jasper seemed to enjoy anyway. Sorry, bit of a side-lit shot.

Jasper's been working on getting one of his Pandas to resemble a Picasso painting. I think he's pretty much nailed it ;-)

Patrolling the neighborhood, keeping us safe. Good boy Jasper

Yesterday I showed you a window theme in pink and blue. Today this Aussie Christmas themed shirt is in bright orange.

The good old cocky sitting in a tree, making a heck of a mess! Cheeky buggers, they sit in the tree bold as brass until you come out and point a camera at them. This guy was a bit slow, and took off only after I'd managed to get this shot.

Sultan Jasper rests upon his thrown known as the Ottoman Empire. We grovel.

Jasper perks up when he hears the neighbors playing in their back yard. COVID 19 (or at least the stay-at-home policy) seems to have had a positive effect on the neighbor family behind us. They've dreamed up some sort of trampoline volleyball game that they play several times per day.. It's the whole family including the mom, the dad and the kids. It involves a lot of hooting, hollering, bouncing, laughing, scoring and many volleyballs. They seem to be very close-knit. Jasper thinks we should be playing like that. But what he's forgetting is that we DO play several times per day.

Jasper

We found a ball on our walk a few days ago and let Jasper run with it in the green space by our house. And every subsequent day Jasper has rediscovered the ball to his continued delight. I'm glad it makes you so happy, buddy.

Jasper doesn't think much of the Superbowl because he knows real dogs play OddBall, not football. A slow-motion video of Jasper catching the ball in the OddBall X Challenge

Jasper waits with Monkey Business for the humans to respond. Sometimes it takes them a while. Like some kind of server glitch or something.

Cottesloe Beach, February 2016

This is Calvados, or Cal for short. He is Jasper's blood nephew who lives in Wisconsin with my wife's sister and family. He's a big sweetie. He's got very interesting heterochromatic (multi-colored) eyes.

This is my "nephew" Calvados, or Cal for short. And he's actually Jasper's blood nephew. He lives with my sister-in-law's family In Wisconsin. A great happy-go-lucky dog with typical Aussie energy. Blind shooting again

While not exactly an untried theme for me, the sun has been setting as we take our "evening" walk these days. Beautiful sun. Beautiful dog. Can't help whipping out the camera.
