Sutton Hoo


Hi Everyone!

Today Kathleen and I walked across the local golf course to an Anglo-Saxon ship and king burial ground by the name of Sutton Hoo. Sutton Hoo is what they call a National Trust their version of one of our National Historic Sites. We saw lots of different artifacts from the Anglo-Saxon era like helmets, chain mail, weapons, and a replica of the boat that the king was buried in. We also walked around the site and
saw the burial mounds and where all the Anglo-Saxon ships and kings were buried.

After walking around the burial site we also went to the Sutton Hoo Quilt Show on site and took a few pictures of them. When we left the quilt show we had a bit to eat and headed back across the golf course to get home and got soaked in our first England rain storm. As for tomorrow Kathleen goes to her first day at Quilters Haven and I think I'll walk into Melton and Woodbridge and hand out some more CV's(their version of a resume)to potential employers. Wish me luck!

Till next time,
Rocky
