Chuck Walla: Greetings from Geocaching.com!

Since you have not responded to my reviewer log about your cache, nor did you post a note to your cache page telling me and others of your intention to address the issue with it, the cache has been archived.

Some time ago, I posted a note to your cache page requesting a response from you to post what you were planning to do with the cache on the page and to send me a note. I have no record of a response, and no response tells me that you are not planning on replacing or repairing this cache. If I am wrong with that assumption, please let me know promptly. I can always unarchive the cache for you if needed.

Sincerely,

Geocache Description:

The Serjeant of the Law, wise and dscreet
There was as well, who often held his seat
In the church porch; an excellent man was he
Prudent indeed, and great of dignity –
Or so he seemed, his speeches were so wise,
Oft-times he had been justice at assize
By patent and by full commission
-Geoffrey Chaucer, Translated by Frank Earnest Hill

The Serjeant of the Law is, you guessed it, a the medieval form of a lawyer. So like the name, this cache is really straight forward.

Law=Y

Geoffrey Chaucer (most famous for writing The Canterbury Tales) is known as “The Father of English Literature” and was the first person to be buried in what is now known as the Poet’s Corner of Westminster Abbey. In the late 14th century everything was written in Latin, Italian, German and French, but Chaucer, (the amazing rebel that he was) decided that he would write in the language of his people, English. I feel it’s about time Little Rock had some Literature strewn about the city.

The Canterbury Tales was going to consist of 120 tales, but only 28 were written before he died, leaving it unfinished. However it is still one of the most remarkable pieces of literature to date. It has everything in it from the greatest moral tales to the most sexually vulgar, what more could one want?

Set Up
This is set up in the same manner as the AR state parks caches. Each cache has its own feel to it and is a traditional cache, but on the top of each cache there will be a number that you plug into a set of coordinates, to show where the final cache is hidden. Unlike the AR state park department I don’t have enough money to supply geo coins, but I’m also not putting these all over the state and there aren’t 52 of them. However the swag will be more substantial than the every day cache.

These caches are designed and named for their character. Note the location as well.

********Unfortunately I’ve had some severe trouble maintaining the canterbury caches as a multi-cache, so FOR NOW they are going to simply be caches of their own. Sorry for misleading you on this quest.
