Can you spot my RV?

What about all the flags?

They're part of a 'just 'cause' program that runs May through September, explains Mary Graves,IMG_0070 Ritzville Chamber of Commerce administrator.

Graves and her husband, Terry Kaas, moved from Bremerton, Wash. to this town of less than 2,000 residents, three years ago. Their goal was to retire, but they ended up taking jobs in the community. 

A former marketing professional, Graves sees a future of increased tourism for Ritzville due to its proximity to Interstate 90 and role as eastern Washington's wheat and grain transport hub.

"I think it is on the verge of itself. I think in the next few years it's just going to blossom," she says.
