On Thursday, May 8, Phillips brought decades of exploration and discovery to local seniors, sharing fascinating artifacts and stories he's uncovered from across Alabama over the last 40 years. His display featured a variety of items, including:
🏺 Rare antique bottles (some dating back to the 1800s)
💰 Unique coins

📰 Old newspapers and documents
Attendees even had the opportunity to bring their own keepsakes for Phillips to examine!
