One of Georgia's Most Famous Residents Survives Flood

No, I'm not talking about Jimmy Carter, or "The Mouth of The South". Ted Turner, or not even baseball star Chipper Jones.  They were not in danger.

The State of Georgia held its collective breath earlier this week to find out the condition of General Beauregard Lee.  Lee is not a Civil War hero or a former POW.  Beauregard Lee is possibly the most famous groundhog in the world.  Strong rain and rampant flooding hit Lilburn, Georgia, the home of General Lee.  Word has now come out that General Lee and all the other animals housed at The Yellow River Game Ranch in Lilburn made it through the rain and floods fine.

There is some clean up and reorganizing to do at the ranch but General Lee will be ready to work his one day a year on February 2, like he does every year.  The  Yellow Game Ranch is expected to be open soon so go and see General Lee and all his friends.  And here's hoping General Lee will see an early spring come next February 2.
