A Beautiful Hike - House Mountain

 This article was originally published on November 13, 2011 on the old blog


Let's go back in time a tad so I can share A beautiful Hike up House Mountain. We actually hiked this mountain twice in October. I'll share the second hike in a different post.

The first hike was with my oldest son. It was just the two of us hiking the moderately difficult trail to the tiptop of House Mountain.  That was on October 23rd. This date was relevant to the PTSD Flare Ups he was dealing with, so I wanted him to get out of the house. My youngest son didn't make this adventure with us. He was with his youngest sister.

Since it was already October, we had already experienced at least two overnight frosts, the trees were in their beautiful changing patterns. Pictures depict A beautiful Hike up House Mountain much better than I can describe with words.

When we got to the top of the mountain, my oldest son apologized for complaining the whole way up. He said that in his heart, he had conquered much more than the mountain, but couldn't share with me any details. He was, at this point, recovering very well from his PTSD Flare up.
