Celebrations: The loud, the quiet and the colourful
Earlier this month, I was given the amazing opportunity to capture the wedding celebrations of my friends, Maya & Anuj, in Alberta, Canada. 2500kms round trip, a couple different hotels, and a whirlwind of activity resulted in way over 10,000 images, which I now get to cruise through. But wow. The overflow of love and … Continue reading Celebrations: The loud, the quiet and the colourful

Strolling through Pemberton
I was strolling through Pemberton on Tuesday. Doin’ my Tuesday thing, grocery shopping, banking, going to the bakery, physio… a usual Tuesday around town. A habit I picked up in Halifax is that I look up when I’m walking around. I look up and look at people. This surprises people, but the overwhelming response is … Continue reading Strolling through Pemberton
What Happens at Early Risers…
It’s almost like we belong to some mysterious (and some would say, delirious) club, but Monday, Wednesday and Friday, at 5:40 in the morning, vehicles converge in the parking lot beside Mountain Glass and Mirror and a committed crew of clients line trundle into the side bay of the shop to gather a collection of … Continue reading What Happens at Early Risers…

Supporting your first responder, workshop for partners of firefighters, police, paramedics and SAR volunteers, Thursday, June 2, 7pm
Two days a week, I go into work at the SLRD office, just above the Fire Hall in Pemberton. Sometimes, the trucks are out, glistening-clean in the sun. They're never put away dirty. Sometimes, firefighters are gathered around, preparing to greet kids for a party. Sometimes I hear the sirens as they head out to … Continue reading Supporting your first responder, workshop for partners of firefighters, police, paramedics and SAR volunteers, Thursday, June 2, 7pm

Instead of home schooling her kids or putting them in Waldorf, she dreams of inspiring the administrators and teachers of School District 48 to think outside the classroom box by sharing statistics at PD Days about the tangible benefits of nature education. She dreams of kids who … Continue reading Want to go halves in an orchard?
Meet our contributor, Connie Sobchak
We have a new Friday feature on the Wellness Almanac. A regular snapshot of something wild and wonderful from Connie Sobchak. I'd be admiring her photos on Facebook for sometime, and enjoyed a review on a book about habits that she wrote for us, so I asked if she'd be interested in sharing more regularly. … Continue reading Meet our contributor, Connie Sobchak
