Geocache Description:

“Oh, oh, one less than eight, surely Bassey sang it great.” (A clue in the Cryptic style, if not form. Inspired by NCPositronics’ much-admired Cryptic Cache)

The cache location is related to the three locations below although it is NOT at any of them. Parking is found at the listing coordinates. The cache is a sandwich-sized plastic container.

N39 18.725 W76 41.261
N39 18.536 W76 41.063
N39 18.309 W76 41.176

Another clue. It might confuse. On the other hand, it may amuse. “The Chesapeake Bay Bridge doesn’t, but many bridge decks include 25% of these. Anything less would be a bad deal.” Really, this is just a game.

Coming at the cache from the suggested parking, it is easiest to go "up" at the bench.

Fizzycalc (internet search) is a free PC utility that is very useful for measuring the distance and bearing between two points and for projecting a waypoint.

The cache contains a memento for the first five finders.
