Hello Again

Faithful followers of FotoFink may have noticed a....... pause.... in posts here at the blog.  The end of fall sports led to the holiday season, which in turn led to a sense of complacency (laziness), which finally ended as I realized that the basketball seasons were slipping away.  Truth is, it is good to be back.  The off-season pushed our staff dangerously close to finding the answer to the age-old question of "How many holiday photos can you take before you begin to lose your sanity?"

So-  Hello again!  Saturday presented a perfect way to get back in the swing with a triple header of girls' basketball at the Holy Redeemer gym.  While the focus (there's that bad pun again) here is generally on varsity sports, it's worth noting that last year's freshman girls basketball pictures are still recording a stunning number of hits.   Armed with this knowledge, it seemed appropriate to include all levels in this year's efforts- so you will notice 3 galleries linked at the bottom of this post.

You may also notice that Neil Diamond is not any further down the list in the life-long project.  It turns out that a hiatus is contagious, spilling over into all aspects of one's recreational pursuits.  Who knew?  Perhaps the restarting of the FotoFink machine will bring some advancement through the record cabinet as well.

Not much to note from the games themselves- the gym floor is still hard if you sit on it for three straight games.  Pulled pork sandwiches have been replaced by chicken-wing pizza as the concession food of choice.  Your home teams won one, lost two.  The high point for me?  The halftime show of the JV game-  Mites!!

Naming the players in each photo was quite an adventure, since I had no rosters, and apparently the teams have no websites.  Many thanks to Mary Griseto for her help in identifying players on the JV and Varsity teams.  She also helped with the freshmen, but the photos had already been posted without the tags.  Next time I will ask sooner.

Now that things are underway again, the FotoFink schedule is rapidly filling.  Tuesday MAY bring our staff out to the Redeemer boys basketball game, as there is a rumor that the fans are preparing something special.  Saturday looks like another triple header of basketball at HR, and there have been quiet requests for wrestling and swimming pictures as well.  As always, our staff will strive to cover as much as possible.

Here's the beef-
