Chuck Walla: Greetings from Geocaching.com!

Since you have not responded to my reviewer log about your cache, the cache has been archived.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:

Swan Lake Baptist Church was established 1865 and rebuilt in 1923, and again in 1965... didnt realize this church or the quaint cemetery behind it even existed... As I walked through the cemetery I found tomb stones from soldiers that fought in WW1, WW2, Vietnam, and Korea. These men fought for the freedom we enjoy and are gone but should never be forgotten. They likely endured hardships we may never understand...

***Cache is at the POSTED COORDINATES***

As I began constructing my Monkey Puzzle I began to realize how it represents life… This two fold!
First, people deal with internal struggles daily, and those who are successful have often learned the importance of controlling those fears and worries. When you learn to overcome and quiet those fears you began to hear the real KEY to success. In the words of Paul “Bear” Bryant “If you believe in yourself and have dedication and pride - and never quit, you'll be a winner. The price of victory is high but so are the rewards.”
I also realized how puzzles are truly becoming a thing of the past… Unfortunately today’s generation is growing up with the need of instant gratification. Kids are constantly surrounded by gaming systems, computers, MP3 players ect… they are always a click away from a win or loss… Geocaching can slow the pace of this generation so that they “don’t miss the forest for the tree’s” It teaches them to research, plan and discover!!! If you’re a seasoned Geocacher, then congratulations on the discoveries you have made and if you’re a newbie than I encourage you to embrace life and DISCOVER!!! You must unlock the cache and sign the log to claim the smiley!!! No signature on the log means no find but please at least post a note!!!
Additional fun!!! Who remembers the luggage stickers that were so popular years ago…They showed where a person had traveled… Well I encourage finders to put a sticker on the outside of the Monkey Puzzle the represents you or where your from… The cache will soon be covered with stickers from everywhere!!!

Please do not leave any SWAG in the Cache it will obstruct the puzzle!!! Thanks and Enjoy
