Ritzville

Ritzville is the the first major town west of Spokane on I-90 to Seattle. This statue is of a pioneer woman. It is across the street from the gas station which has been at the East Ritzville exit since I have been traveling the route, circa 1969. The history of the European in Eastern Washington is not very old. The Europeans have only been in the area in any real number since about 1880.
