👋 About Me
I’m Jesse C. McEntee – Vermont‑based dad and outdoorsman. My essays have appeared in The Boston Globe, Northern Woodlands, and VTDigger, and my academic work is cited in peer-reviewed journals.
For 17 years I’ve cooked camp meals, tracked bucks across alpine ridges, and dragged two kids (now teens) into every kind of weather.
When they were toddlers I asked a single daily question:
“What’s our next adventure?”
That question became this newsletter.
The Promise
I write every word myself. No AI‑generated fluff – ever. If an essay doesn’t leave dirt under your fingernails (or at least on your imagination), I rewrite it.
