The Waver's final interview | My Nevada
What are some of the interesting characters that you remember from your hometowns? Reno, Nevada is where I went to the last few years of Elementary School, Junior High, Three Years of High School, about 7 years of College getting two BAs at the University of Nevada, Reno.
The Waver, Ed Carlson, was one of these interesting people. He spent a lot of time just walking on the main stretch of highway between Reno and Carson City happily waving at various motorists.
I would play a game with him and not wave or smile back at him until he waved a few more times in my direction. His mission in life seemed to be to spread joy. Not sure how he supported himself through all this waving.
