To find the coordinates for the cache, solve the following:

W 074 FG.HIJ
You will need the zip codes for both Kingston and Woodstock.
A = 2nd digit of the Kingston zip code.
B = 4th digit of the Kingston zip code.
C = 5th digit of the Kingston zip code.
D = 1st digit of the Kingston zip code.
E = 3rd digit of the Kingston zip code.
F = 4th digit of the Kingston zip code.
G = 3rd digit of the Woodstock zip code.
H = 4th digit of the Woodstock zip code minus 3rd digit of the Woodstock zip code.

I've lived half my life about a half mile NW of this spot.
I also delivered the mail whose route runs past this spot.
