Hi! My name is Lara Wall. I have been asked to do the take over this week. I love photography and trying to tell stories with pictures. I have lived in Pemberton for over fifteen years. I was raised in Nova Scotia but always felt like I needed to be somewhere else. Driving into this valley has always felt like coming home. During this week I hope I can show you my view of why I love this town and community. #takeoverbyLara

When I was asked to take over the Wellness Almanac Instagram for a week the first thing that ran through my head was “What the heck am I going to post?!”, the second was “Oh man this week is going to be boring for followers!”.

Well, lo and behold, I didn’t have a problem finding something to post and now realize my slow rural life isn’t as slow as I thought it was.

So I totally gapped yesterday and missed posting, sorry 😐. I guess life sometimes gets in the way of remembering! Last night my weekly outlet was at Kufuka with a bunch of awesome ladies. Tonight, this is my outlet. Discovering kickboxing was one of the best things I have done 🥊#takeoverbyLara

I also discovered that I am able to spend most of my free time with my daughter.

Last post day is back at Pemberton BMX for Provincial Qualifiers. Our small town club did awesome and I am so proud of all the kids (big and small) and all the volunteers that make it happen. Thanks for joining my perspective of life this week! #takeoverbyLara

She even comes to volunteer at Pemberton BMX, and none of our family members race. I love that just wanting to help seems to have been passed down my bloodline. Not a bad trait in my books.

Why have I been a volunteer with Pemberton BMX since it started, even in 33 degree weather? All about the smiles coming across the finish line. #takeoverbyLara

I love this community and I love the area we are so lucky to call our home.
