Great article about a guy I used to see every week on my drives to UVa:

What Happened to the Waving Man?

North Garden, VA - If you've been around here for a number of years and driven up route 29 toward Charlottesville, you are probably familiar with "The Waving Man."

He's a legend, but in recent years he is rarely out at his post. Where has he been?

For nearly two decades he waved and waved, bringing a smile to many a passerby, and singing--- or reading gospel-- to himself, or anyone who stopped to listen.
