Square Kids, Square Kids, Square Kids

In case you didn't know, you're supposed to sing the title of this post to the "Square Pegs" theme song. Yes, I'm comfortably above 30 years old and happy to be so. And no, I'm not sure if I ever actually saw the show itself (didn't even realize that Sex/City woman was in it) or just had the theme song hammered into my head somehow during the 80s.

As Holden's classmates would scream: Digression!

I shot a series of square portraits for my sister today. I'm happy with all but one of them, and I might have to shoot a few more shots to get what I want. These are all in the vein of some portraits I did a month or two back - a style that I really enjoy and a format that I highly appreciate for portraiture. My sis was pretty happy with them, as am I.

After that, we headed into Salt Lake to attend a SLC Bees baseball game.

To be honest, I'm not a fan of baseball.

Its a bit slow, slightly boring and just can't complete with the beautiful game for sheer athleticism, excitement and, ahem, beauty. That said, its a mildly interesting past-time, with some quirky side-shows, so when my younger sis handed me free front row seats I couldn't refuse. We took the parents-in-law and made an evening of it.

My son got one of those big foam #1 hands (a first for our family) and then found a baseball - he was buzzing with excitement. His grandpa is a big fan, so the two of them talked about all the ins/outs and made it all worth it.

Funny, they were playing the Tacoma Rainiers. I suppose they are our hometown team...uh, go team!
