We were in search of gold again today but had no luck. We walked all over three fields where Celtic gold has been found. I guess it just wasn't our turn. After a roadside lunch of hot pasties, crisps and fruit juices, we returned to the faire site. When we arrived, the farmer was just rolling one of the areas we had great success in yesterday. As soon as he left the area, we hot footed it right back there. Clarence banged out a hammered silver that appears to be foreign (not British). It has yet to be identified. One of our doo dads from yesterday turned out to be a stirrup mount of a type not seen before. It needs more research as do lots of other things.
Tonight is our last night and it is also our 22nd wedding anniversary. And they said it wouldn't last... We had a wonderful day together, in the sunshine and English countryside doing what we both enjoy. I can't think of a better way to spend the day.
Thanks to all of you for following along in our adventure. Stay tuned for more installments . It looks like we will be back next year.
