John and I took a quick hike to the top of House Mountain today. House Mountain, a Knox county park, is located at 9601 Hogskin (gotta love the name) off Rutledge Park. The mountain offers an opportunity for a quick challenging hike when one is too lazy or starting too late to hike just about anywhere else. That pretty much sums up our attitude this morning.
