overall personality • Weston is a polite fellow, albeit a bit slow in the social setting. He doesn't do well if he's having to converse with more than two people - as he can't keep up and gets overwhelmed. Weston does his best to remember faces and names, but the info can sometimes escape him.

With his love of maps and directions, Weston has a solid sense of direction - often one of the best people to ask for the way to get somewhere. He can get a bit excessive and sometimes explains too much in detail or alternate routes in case of traffic.

Weston is kind and talkative to those that know him. He does his best to take care of the residents and businesses on his mail route. He loves dogs, and with permission - leaves dog treats. Of course, the barns get horse-friendly treats as well.

Despite his lack of business ownership background, Weston loves running a vineyard. The aspect of numbers and the aging process is something that he takes on well. He often trusts the employees that have worked there, as he didn't believe it was morally right to fire them when the vineyard became his.

overall history • Weston and his fraternal twin were born to Andrew and Maria. They were accidental children, children they weren’t prepared for. Wanting to build their careers first, they placed the children for adoption shortly after birth. Weston and his twin were adopted by Todd and Debbie McLellan. The adoption was an open adoption, allowing Andrew and Maria to keep connected.

Childhood was wonderful, as Weston had two sets of parents that loved and cared for him. The children grew up smart and well-mannered. Each route was vastly different as well. His sister Cassie fell in love with horses, and Weston was more about patterns and connections. It was found that Weston loved repetition and had hyper-focused on remembering maps and routes. Todd and Debbie were curious about this behavior, and after many tests – Weston was diagnosed with ADHD. The diagnosis was a challenge, but after finding the best ways to keep Weston occupied and not fighting his love for maps – Weston bloomed.

He opted out of college education, as he did extremely well as a mail carrier. Weston’s love of remembering routes and patterns made him an excellent mail employee as he knew his routes and others’ routes like the back of his hand.

When Weston and his twin were in their early twenties, their father Andrew was diagnosed with lung cancer. It had spread quickly, but the children were able to say their final goodbyes. After Andrew’s death, Weston and his twin were willed to their father’s family Winery in this quaint place called Hickstead. Weston didn’t know what to think of it but wanting to help his adopted parents after all their help – he jumped to take over. It also helped that Cassie was in the area, making acclimating to the area a lot easier.

Despite being a vineyard owner now, Weston still loves being a mail carrier. He breaks his day up by delivering mail in the morning – and then the vineyard in the afternoon and evening. Weston is loving Hickstead, and is hoping to get a dog as a companion as he feels more settled now.
