Hello...My name is Michael Norris. I'm fairly new to relic collecting, but have no lack of interest on the subject. I've been hunting for about a year now, and like to think I've built a decent collection so far. Either way, I'm happy finding anything that pertains to our history.
I'll look for artifacts just about anywhere that looks likely (with permission, of course). Rivers and creeks are probably my favorite, though, with kayak being the preferred form of transportation. Being outdoors, on calm waters, connecting with the things that make up the world is a great feeling. That's one reason I love living in the beautiful state of Alabama. There's nothing like floating down the river with an eagle soaring above you.
My interest in the archaeological world increases every day, in every way. Regardless of how many artifacts I find throughout my indeavors, I'll always appreciate what I do find and especially what I learn. That's why I love websites such as this...it gives everyone a chance to share knowledge and beautiful pieces of history.
