We present the results of quality factor measurements for rod samples made of fused silica. To decrease the dissipation we annealed our samples. The highest quality factor that we observed was $Q=(2.03\pm0.01)\times10^8$ for a mode at 384 Hz. This is the highest published value of $Q$ in fused silica measured to date.
