Never a dull moment here in Atlanta!
I am enjoying a visit from the daughter and grandaughter. Last night daughter and I decided to take in a movie, something we have been doing together since she was 2. After the movie it was rather late 1:30am and daughter wanted to bring home a bag of ice so we stopped at our 24hr Walmart.
We almost had the entire store to ourselves, aside from the stocking crew so we walked around and picked up a few things for the grandaughter to enjoy in the morning......a little tea set, and a Mr Potato head.
We left and walked out to the truck which we had left with the top down...... and when we attempted to get in we discovered a baby lamb in the passenger seat.
What next? Someone had actually placed a baby lamb in the truck! I opened the door initally to coax it out but quickly discovered it wasn't going anywhere. It appeared to be quite young and scared considering its present location.....though quite comfortable.
So we called 911 and asked to be connected to the non-emergency number. The local police Woodstock Ga asked what the problem was.....imagine trying to explain you had a lamb in your truck! Two......yes two cruisers raced up and came to the rescue..........what an evening! One officer picked up the lamb who's legs unfolded (like they were on hinges) as he held it in his arm.
Two young kids came out to enter a parked car near by and they were instantally grilled by the second younger officer......."Are you responsible for this"! They were not, and were quite shocked to see the lamb in the arms of the other officer.
We called today to find out what happened, and we hope the lamb made it to a nice local farm somewhere!
Only in Georgia!
