Mark Smith at Windekind Farm

Mark and I had a chance to talk during lunch today. He served in the Peace Corps in its early days, stationed in Brazil. There he met his wife Marijke who was serving in the Danish corps. They purchased Windekind Farm in 1968 and have never looked back. 

Mark and Marijke have been wonderful hosts here at Windekind Farm.

Here's Mark working on a 7.25 gauge coal powered steam engine that's true to its standard size engine in every detail. Mark has 3000 feet of track that guests can ride in the summer.
