Is this a recent picture? I hope so ... it lets me know this guy is still there. When we lived in Galveston a couple of years ago, he was always out on the seawall waving that big ol' American flag. He would smile and wave at cars passing by, and we would honk our horns and wave right back. I would usually get an extra big wave and smile from him when he saw our military stickers. In December he dresses in a Santa costume. He's quite a character and quite an inspiration (a Vietnam vet, if I'm not mistaken).
