This week I want to recognize @Jay Hanan . 🔥 A few weeks back Jay asked a simple question — “My kids want to camp, any tips?” Two girls, ages 3 and 7, ten years since he’d been out there. What happened next is why I built this place. Y’all showed up. Real advice. Real stories. No flexing. Just people helping a dad get his daughters started. But here’s what made it stick — Jay went out, applied it, and came back to tell us. Grabbed a Thermacell for a wild boar trip, used it, reported back. Ask, apply, share. That’s the loop. Jay is also building eXplorers 🚀 — a community for makers, engineers, and creators who use music to focus. 45+ years at the piano, live improvised sessions every week for deep work. If you run a business, build, write, or just need to lock in — worth a look. 👇 https://www.skool.com/innovate-5678/about Jay — appreciate you. 🤝 Where the Map Ends, The WILD begins!! Stay Rugged.

but I did go to a version of the wilderness for a few days to find wild boar. And I was happy to have your mosquito tip in my back pocket. You know how well that worked? Well, one of the folks at the ranch warned me the mosquitos were bad. I bought a thermacell on my way there (you can find them at WalMart). It is kind of like an umbrella. If you bring it, it seems like it doesn't rain. I didn't bring the umbrella (so it rained), but I did bring the thermacell and saw maybe 3 mosquitos, without even turning it on! 🤔 I thought you would like to know it helped!

What was it?
