Hi! I just joined TNet yesterday, after being a lurker and learner for the past several months. I figured I would take a few moments to introduce myself....
My name is Marcie. I am a 37-year-old mother of two, living in central South Carolina. I guess you could say I have been a treasure hunter all my life. Many of the warm summer days of my youth were spent hunting arrowheads in the woods and fields around our home with my family. My uncle and Dad were avid collectors of Indian artifacts, and we kids enjoyed going along. I still love to take a day, or even just an hour when life is hectic, to search for those elusive spear points; although the finds are much fewer and further between these days.
I also enjoy metal detecting. I'm still learning, and amassing a huge collection of.... uh.... stuff. Found so far: lumps of UMM (Unidentified Melted Metal), coins, tokens, knives, old nails, tools, tin cans, toy cars, fence wire, railroad spikes, and lots and lots of pull tabs! Oh, and water lines - can't forget those. Not found so far: bling bling and valuable coins. Someday....
Some of my other hobbies and interests are genealogy research, reading, writing, spending time with the assorted family critters, playing cards and word games, hunting and fishing. Of course, I never have enough time for my hobbies with work, but I think that's a problem many of us bit by the treasure-hunting bug face!
Well, that's me. Hi!

Marcie, great to have you here with us. You have quite a few interesting hobbies. Looking forward to seeing some of your Indian artifacts and other finds. Good luck and happy hunting.
Very nice! I can't wait to see what all else you have! Glad you are here!
