Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to ALL!

[Adam Helmer]

I wish all Hunt Chat folks the best for 2018. As the old year winds down, let us all take stock of where we are. I had a great 2017 and got a year older. At age 73, it is humbling to realize my best years are behind me.

I have had a wonderful wife, great friends, great dogs and wonderful days afield. I retired in 1996, taught school as a sub for 10 years and graduated from Seminary in May 2008. I learned wealth is not numbers in a bank book or a stock report, but the number of friends I have. The Bible tells us to "number our day." As they wind down, I am focused on what really matters.

Again, I wish all Hunt Chat folks a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.

Be well.

Adam
