A bit of highway magic


As I was driving home from work in the fading sunlight, I noticed a man and a car on the side of an on-ramp I was about to pass.  The car sat empty.  The man sat beside the car.  In front of him was a drum kit.  He was playing the drums.

Magic. 

I wish I had been able to take a picture.

As luck would have it, others have indeed photographed this guy.  As you can read in this short article, this man has done this before, apparently multiple times.  He sits there for a simple and practical reason:  To avoid noise complaints from his neighbors while he practices his drums. 

I don't mind that his motivation is practical.  I still love what he's doing, and I consider it magic.  It made my day.
