LEXINGTON, Virginia — Every Wednesday morning, James McDaniel sits along the South Main Street portion of U.S. 11 with a healthy stack of the News-Gazette beside him. He wears a neat, white apron with the newspaper’s moniker stitched across the top.
He keeps a small, folded tarp tucked away in case of rain to protect the paper, even if there isn’t a cloud in the sky — “You just never know,” he says. He also keeps a broad, never-failing smile on his face and a “hello” on his lips for everyone who passes in the street, whether they buy a paper or not.
