Lori Naanes’s nature photography work is being featured on the cover (and inside, I think) of the 2009 Weather Indiana Calendar put out by channel 13. Your can see and order it here: http://www.indianaweathercalendar.com or pick it up at Half Price Book store, which has a new location in Avon. Looks like lots of statistics on the calendar to go along with the beautiful pictures. It would make a great Christmas gift.
I met Lori when she worked at the local high school office. She did a great job there and left to work at Pershing’s accounting office in Greencastle. Not only was she efficient and easy to work with, she has a very positive aura that helps set the tone in an office. They need that at the top, methinks.
Lori and her husband live outside of Cloverdale and their kids graduated from CHS in recent years. Lori has deep artistic roots as her sister, Jeri, is the owner of the very successful Boca Loca bead store, where she is a successful glass artist. Here is her website: http://www.bocalocabeadsinc.com
I have been to a lot of bead stores in Indiana and this is the best one. She even travels the world to buy up vintage beads. Ooh la la. I have taken a couple of classes at her shop and they are always extremely professional and helpful.
