Allow me to introduce myself

Hello, devoted reader. I am Brandon Cline, the new managing editor at the Ritzville Adams County Journal. I never really know what to say when I write these articles introducing myself, but here goes nothing.

I was born and raised in Goldendale, Washington, a town that is roughly an hour south of Yakima along the Washington-Oregon border with a population of about 3,500 people. There are no traffic lights in Goldendale, the Goldendale Observatory State Park hosts one of the largest public observatories in the United States and the closest WalMart is an hour’s drive away.

It’s important for me...
