We're here!

Made it to London and are settled in our hotel room near Heathrow. We just had dinner at the hotel restaurant and we are stuffed. Clarence even ordered duck pate for his appetizer.

A car will be picking us up at 10 and then it is about a two hour drive to Colchester. It is supposed to rain tomorrow and that will affect which field we choose for the first day. One of the most exciting fields , right now anyway, is rough plowed and will be difficult to walk in, much less detect in. It has given up countless hammered silver coins and two gold rings in the last year. We might let that one wait for a couple of days so it can dry out. The weather is on our side for a change.

I hope to have some exciting finds to share with you tomorrow night. If we get skunked, as can certainly happen, it just makes those great finds even sweeter.
More tomorrow...
