Hey Nancy!

 NB> You'll have to let us know when you do spot the chicks out and
 NB> about...

I'll do better than that and put some pictures up for grabs.  The neighbour has
 all the professional photography stuff and takes some excellent wildlife
pictures.  I am sure he has some from previous years of quails with chicks but
we'll get a fresh supply from this years crop.

 NB> Maybe at least water the wild roses....?

No need to yet.  We got some rain today and are expecting more.  Hopefully we
don't end up with watering restrictions.  It was a record dry May this year.

 NB> I'd be more inclined to get a 10yo Glenlivet over the Founders
 NB> Reserve, actually... 

I've never seen a 10yo.  12 and up and usually just 12yo Glenlivet.  Last year
was different though with the Founders and the 18yo at the local store.  I had
to go to Nanaimo to get the 15yo.  This year I'll stick to the standard 12yo
unless something extrodinary happens in the meantime.  Definetly enough time
between now and 2019-01-01.  Speaking of which Little Mikey is still locked and
 loaded for Sept. 24th.  :-)

Life is good,
Maurice
