Abstract
In Weld, near beautiful Webb Lake, Mount Blue State Park, and Tumbledown Mountain, 159 of the 436 year-round residents leave town each morning for work. Residents include Abe Kreworuka, who carves wood; Sean Minear, a teacher and president of the 500-strong Weld Historical Society; volunteers Rusty Lee and Earland Masterman, who give historical tours of the town; "town mother," Dorothy Winter, who has seen the changes occasioned by farmers selling homesteads to the government and timberlands in the 1920s and 1930s; Jerry and Dot Nering, who own Weld General Store; and Joanne Zywna, "selectwoman," who brought recycling to Weld and started a store at the dump. They discuss their love for the town.
