Gas Man of Woodland

We know America has a preoccupation with cars, but how about the stuff cars run on? Meet Mark Reiff, a Woodland man whose love affair extends from the car to the gas pump. Mark began his collection of gas pumps four years ago, and today his garage is lined with antique pumps in a variety of shapes and sizes. His collection even includes a gasoline pump
from 1914! But Mark's obsession
with the gas pump did not stop at
collecting.

Instead, he remodeled his front lawn to look like a real gas station complete with a 1950's diner, created a general store in the foyer and added a fake car through the front fence. Now Mark's residence is attracting recognition as a tourist destination and as even appeared in an issue of the National Enquirer. Referred to by friends as the Winchester Mansion of Woodland, Mark's penchant for constantly altering his residence promises to keep him busy for many years to come.
