Geocache Description:

This cache was going to be called "Olde Winchester" for reasons that are obvious when you get to Ground Zero.

CACHE DESCRIPTION #1

However, the night I went to hide this, things got creepy. I got to GZ and used the GPS to get the co-ords. I know they saved properly, because I went to the next closest cache and tested it's distance to ensure I was compliant to the distance (and I am). 5 minutes later I arrived home and found that my GPS had completely reset itself. Completely. The coords I saved 5 minutes earlier? Gone. And I was now centred in the state of Kansas. I can guarantee that my GPS ain't in Kansas anymore!

I travelled back out to this location a second time and got the co-ords again and climbed back into the car. In the car, the same radio ad was playing at the exact same time and location as when I had been here less than an hour earlier.

And not necessarily cache related, but I got home and the external hard drive that I know I turned off this morning is blinking 'on.'

These are all creepy things for one guy in an evening.

CACHE DESCRIPTION #2
We recently disabled a few of our caches and retrieved the containers. We marvelled at the sheer junk that someone places into caches as tradeables. Including... a big rock? That's really topgrading, folks... So, we accumulated some of the crap that we found in some of our recently disabled caches and tossed it into this one. I look forward to see how much worse the contents get over time.

Oh, and this is a camo'd lock and lock container. I hope your find goes easier than my hide.
