Lisa Richardson - Lapsed lawyer, aspiring yogi, freelance writer and occasional PR hack: Lisa knew she'd found her happy place in Pemberton when a cowboy rode past and asked "which way to the beach?" Spotlighting local eccentricity for 5 years as CBC's community reporter, Richardson juggles magazine deadlines, tries to get enough time skiing, mountain-biking and rock-climbing, to keep pace with her neighbours and figures she will be truly free of her suburban upbringing when she is canning her own vegetables. First, she has to learn to grow them.
