Geocache Description:


The LTL caches were started by cgeek to enhance caching opportunities between Memphis and Jackson, TN. The project has grown with the goal of having a cache near every exit on I-40 from Memphis to the North Carolina border.

On September 21, 1807, Kingston became the capital of Tennessee for one day to fulfill an agreement with the Cherokee nation, where the tribe was led to believe that if they ceded the land in and around Roane County, Kingston would become the capital of Tennessee. True to the agreement, the first session of the seventh General Assembly of the State of Tennessee convened in Kingston. At the end of the day, the Senate and the House of Representatives resolved to "...adjourn forthwith from Kingston, to meet on Wednesday the 23rd, eleven A.M. at the courthouse in Knoxville."

This is a small town with little growth over the last 25 years. I was told that a prominant local family likes it that way and keeps their foot on the neck of anyone who doesn't see things as they do. Wonder if they know about the new (although small) shopping center out by the lake?

In the spirit of the LTL series, I looked for a guard rail to "attach to this" cache. You will notice there aren't any so I had to improvise.
