Thanks. Unfortunately, I will probably be alone (except for my dog). A friend of mine says he might go but he usually cancels at the last minute.

Anyway, I have been going over maps and like what I see. I have an area in mind. The pheasant hunting forum says there are no birds in the area but I figure the locals want to keep outsiders away. I am hoping to see some pheasant and quail. Even if I can't find any roosters, getting my pup an opportunity to flush a bunch of hens would be an good experience for her.
