Spider Web Mystery Cache

This cache has been archived.

The Rat: I'm archiving several of my less-visited caches to reduce my maintenance load and free up spots for others. The cache was missing, too. Since there are 7 people watching this, I'll explain the puzzle. The spider spells out a message with her route. She begins at the 12:00 o'clock position and travels clockwise. The message is "add point five to N and W minutes." Each letter is represented by its distance from the center. Each circular strand represents five letters of the alphabet, so the first ring is the letter E and the last (5th) one is the letter Y. There is no Z.

Geocache Description:


Today I was working in the garden and I noticed a beautiful, symmetrical spider web, perhaps the largest I've ever seen. Then the oddest thing happened. The spider in the very center looked at me -- I swear she did -- and crawled around the web in a very odd route. I think she was trying to tell me something. I haven't been able to make sense of it. Perhaps  you can. Here's her route:
