  • Howdy, y'all! My name is Mike and I absolutely love scavenging for free stuff, random treasures, lost valuables and other interesting artifacts. I mainly rock the dumpster diving scene but can be found digging through trash curbside as well as scavenging the river bottoms for lost treasures in the summer months. Join me on my epic voyages!

    In a nutshell, I ‘m an avid dumpster diver, scrapper, picker, treasure hunter and underwater connoisseur. I prowl the city streets in search of dumpster loot, curbside treasures & scrap metal as well as scour the river bottoms for lost valuables during the summer months when I can scrounge up enough money for gas.

    My favorite memory of Selma is when she "explored" the fireplace. I'll always remember that precious face covered in soot. You two did everything you possibly could to save her. Rest easy knowing you gave her your best. She leaves a paw sized hole in your heart and a lifetime of precious memories. Hugs and GOD bless both of you. ❤️❤️
