_hobbit: I've let this linger longer than I should have. Partly as a tribute to the guy that actually hid the cache - Mike aka 'Old dog' aka 'choppnhappydog' aka 'Mike and Denise' - helped me out and moved this cache to an acceptable location as i was too busy with Fall Fest chores to move it myself. if you pursue geocaching very long you'll learn who the good people are and Mike and Denise were very good people. Mike is gone now, but i believe that Denise is still active.
Thanks Mike!
I won't be retrieving the ammo can, so if anyone wants it, go get it.
