Abe goes casual and takes in a baseball game

He's a Lincoln reenactor and I've seen him at Civil War reenactments. But he was a civilian today.

The inspiration for this picture is one that is on display for the photo contest at Cantigny's visitor center. I thought I'd try a different approach, but as I worked on this, I found I needed a MUCH different approach.
