Live, from the EKKA. Ok, not so live. That was two days ago. But it could have been live. If I had sat down and typed this, I am sure it would have been live. I guess we will have to pretend.

Of course, I won’t finish this in one sitting. I am typing on my phone, having coffee, waiting for Costco to open. So I’ll type a bit then get back to it. We are actually sitting at a rinky-dink shopping center, outside a cheap bakery, having coffee about to go into Drakes. Drakes is an upscale IGA, or an IGA wannabe. I suppose you have to know what an IGA is. It’s an Independent Grocery Association. It’s how these mom and pop grocery stores get their groceries. You join the IGA and you can use their distribution network to order and get stock. 

Or, I could be making that up. I know that is what it stands for but I don’t know how it works. I think you can rename it to something else but IGA has to be in their somewhere. I’ve seen Linda’s IGA and IGA West and others but most are just known by IGA. Drake’s is like that. There are several or maybe even a lot of them around but it’s basically the same idea. Each independently owned but part of an association.

Think I will stop writing about IGA now. Going to go into Drake’s and they might get upset.

Wasn’t sure if it would save correctly on my phone so I’m back checking it before I go into Drake’s. Seems to have worked so we will do it again and finish later.

Never actually made it back to this entry. I am at work now, some days later. Not sure when I started this so basically, I will start again. Maybe I should publish and then create a new entry. I think I have a lot to go over about the EKKA but maybe I don't. I will get started on it and see where it leads us. Slim to no possibility we will go back on the weekend. Not that we had fun but Angie and hers say they are going to go and we get in for half price if we go back, so if they do go, very doubtful, and they tell us, we might go meet them there. Too much money to do that but we might.

Going to get coffee now. I think I will publish this and start a new entry. Always helps to get the numbers up. Problem is always the lack of pictures as my picture taking days are limited. Can't seem to get Maeghan and William into the same picture lately. We will see.

So until next time,
