Ozarks commune turns 30

Tri sez, "I know some of these guys myself. They come into my library regularly and max out the two or three cards that the members share."

They may have been dreamers, but this month, East Wind's 75 members celebrated the 30th anniversary of their enduring — and thriving — community. East Wind recently paid off a loan on an additional 883 acres, its business ventures are worth more than $2.5 million, and it is building a new machine shop and bathhouse.
