Old McDonald Mystery Cache

This cache has been archived.

crs98: This one has run it's course. The solution for this puzzle was to count up the letters E, I, and O in each line (from the repeated line in the song that goes E, I, E, I, O). The number of those letters in each line was a digit in the solution.

Thanks to the many who found the puzzle over the years!
