Geocache Description:

A nice walk down a closed road to a collapsed bridge. (Don't worry, you don't go out on the bridge or near it!) Then a climb back out to find part two!

Historic folk lore in Cecil County tells of the Pig Woman. And how she lived under a bridge, would make your car stall, and then kill you. Or how she died trying to save her children from a burning house fire. And how she had a pig snout and was deformed on her face. And then there was two locations... so we tracked down one. And placed the first stage of the mystery/puzzle cache by the bridge that collapsed when a hurricane/storm blew through a few years back.
Missy111574 and her two kids, and me and my two kids and my shepherd GEO decided to start a Weird Maryland geocaching series, all caches will be based upon the book wierd Maryland. And all 7 of us will be researching and placing them because we can. This one is all me though, since this cache has been in my mind for several months. And after reading of the pig lady...I knew who the Scorned Woman needed to be!!

So..without much further ado... You need to pull answers from songs. The letters are equal to a number in the coordinates which will lead you to the final stage where the cache is hidden. HOWEVER..here is the butt kicker... You need to go to the coordinates listed to get the combo for the combination lock ! The final cache is an ammo box that is locked. The first coordinates are a micro cache with just the combo lock in it. To claim this cache, you must unlock the ammo box and sign the log.
In the log is a George Dollar coin, and several copies of the Scorned Woman CD I burned.
