Celebrity Dairy Vacation in Siler City, NC

Our adventure started Saturday in Pittsboro at the Carolina Brewery and Grill. The food and service was awesome. Of course I had to try one of their own brews called the Sky Blue and I think Linda's was called a Hurricane and had strawberry in it.

It was a roomy restaurant with lots of local art on the walls for sale

Linda chose the turkey sandwich on freshly made bread and was very satisfied with her choice.

I like spicy food so I had to get the buffalo chicken strips. We were both so full when we left.

Britt is the owner and host at the Celebrity Dairy and does everything he can to make you feel so at home.

Brooke, the chef, always exceeded our expectations at breakfast and is such a sweet person to be around as well.

The big king sized bed in our room named the Hattie Mae.

Attractive dresser in one corner of the room

This is actually a wall covering in the massive bathroom that had two full sized sinks with mirrors and a "double shower" bigger than any shower I have ever seen.

Our breakfast table that made it cozy for all of us to be at the table at the same time.

One of the fruit arrangements of canteloupe and pineapple.

A mound of bacon waiting for the other dishes to be brought out. Also a jug of grapefruit juice that was tasty. This morning we had pumpkin waffles, bananas with spices and pecans, eggs slow cooked with goat cheese and herbs that was the best eggs I have ever eaten. Brooke did an awesome job each time.

This is a new yard ornament that has been added since we were there before.

Parked out back was this MG with 1958 license plate on it indicating it was in Germany.

One of the resident cats that like to be rubbed.

Britt's complimentary alarm that wakes everyone up "early" in the morning.

The farm "Stud" that has his own pasture separate from the milk goats. He is allowed in there in August to breed but his scent is a little too strong to stay around the milk goats.

A friend for the stud so he will not be too lonesome away from the others.

Some cows that Britt has recently acquired.

The girls that supply lots and lots of eggs.

The king of the family.

You can tell it is close to milking time for her.

Their daily routine at 6:30 AM & PM

A visitor that I used my zoom lens to bring this close. He was about 6 feet long.

An interesting morning & it's only 6:50 AM

Good morning everybody. I was an early riser as usual and ventured outside in the cool morning air to greet the day. Linda still asleep and from what I could see so was everyone else at the B & B.

I figured it wouldn't be long though because the B & B alarm was going off, namely the large red rooster sounding off. The goats were also making their familiar bleeting sounds as they made their way to my direction in single file. These are the adults and even the older goats seem to appreciate the attention of a gentle rub and soft conversation.

While petting the goats a large cat showed up that was mostly white with rings around his white tail. He commanded some attention as well. As all this was happening I heard a clapping sound and the mexican worker was getting the goats rounded up for the 6 AM milking. I decided to check out the milking process and discovered it was also medicine time. As they were in their stalls being milked a lady was using a large syringe to squirt a de-wormer into their mouths and you should have seen them fight back and then after getting the taste of the medicine shook their heads in disgust. Seems they have to do it from time to time and after giving it to them they will throw away their milk for a week until the medicine clears their system. She was taking careful note as their number to keep track of who had the dose. They only do a small group at a time so as to not shut down their whole milk operation at once.

Time to go wake up Linda and get ready for a gormet breakfast. Have a great day everyone.

Odie & Linda have arrived at Celebrity Dairy

Howdy everyone. Linda & I ate a wonderful lunch at Carolina Brewery & Grill in Pittsboro and had a visit with her Aunt Frances before arriving at our home for the next couple of days, the Celebrity Dairy.

I was very happy to discover that we have wireless connection in our room so I can stay in touch quite well. May have to wait until I get home to do the pictures but time will tell about that too. Have a great evening everyone and sweet dreams. It will be cooling off soon and we will be out back playing with the small goats.

Goats being milked: when they come in they go up a ramp and assume the position with their head through the bars and they are locked in place eating while the milking is in process.
