Our Excursion to Mayfield Dairy

The "leader" of our homeschool co-op is a wonderful woman who happens to be from Australia. Instead of field trips we get to go on excursions. Doesn't that just sound lovely? Hence the new word that will replace summer family outings.

We went to Mayfield Dairy in Braselton, Georgia last Thursday--about 25 miles from our house. We toured the plant where they produce milk and then sampled the ice cream which is made in Athens, Tennessee. Contrary to belief there were no cows. (McCance thought the place would be surrounded with cows.)

Everyone had to don a hair net before the tour could begin.
(Cora didn't need one only because she was sound asleep in the Moby wrap.)

Families who eat ice cream together. . . are happy.

McCance isn't so keen on ice cream because it's so cold, so I got to finish his!
