Rufus Does Si

Rufus had been giving me a hard time about the fact that he has to wait until he is full grown (at round 18 months) before he can start running and mountain biking with me. I finally consented and took him along to hike Mt. Si with me (8 miles up and back, 3,000 feet of total elevation gain). Predictably, he took it like a champ, and scooted up mountain so quick it was hard to get a shot of him.

He insisted on stopping to enjoy the view

When we got to the top, Rufus asked someone to take our picture, making sure to pose so as show off his ridge to best effect...
