  • MOTM for May 2020 beatup1354

    It is always exciting to see new members join and contribute to our forum. Each has their own special way of making our site informative and interesting. This month, I would like to introduce Bret as our newest MOTM of May. Thanks Bret for your valued contributions. People will know who I am talking about as I welcome beatup1354 as MOTM!

    Well thanks ,i am surprised by the fact that you selected me .
    I was born and raised in Washington state and from the time i could walk my dad and uncle would take me and my brother out to hunt artifacts up and down the Columbia river and the whole Columbia plateau region , this was from the late 1950's to the 1970's. So that was the start of my interest in artifact hunting and through my uncle i was introduced to flint knapping by him and some of his native american friends from the umatilla and yakima nations .
    I now live and work in Wyoming , on the east side of the Bighorn Mountains, which is great for my types of interests artifacts ,flint knapping ,fishing ,4 wheeling ,metal detecting & dredging for gold over in the blackhills and mostly any outdoor activity .

    Thanks for the honer of being a motm.

    Bret Bateman

                          Congrats Brett. Beautiful country out there. I have not made it out west to see the Blackhills yet but it’s on my bucket list. I know they were highly regarded by the Sioux nation and full of gold as well. Enjoy your post and again, congrats!
