Inclusion of any link on this site does not constitute an endorsement of that site or its content provider.
Reasonable efforts have been made to ensure both that these links are currently valid and
that they contain reasonable and potentially useful information, but you use them at your own discretion.
- General: links of a general (not regionally specific) nature
- State: links to state-wide information bases
- Region: links pertaining to Eastern Washington
- Adams County: links pertaining to Adams County generally
- Ritzville: links specific to the town of Ritzville
- Othello: links specific to the town of Othello
- Washtucna: links specific to the town of Washtucna
- Benge/Cunningham/Hatton/Lind: links specific to those towns
- Web Search: ways to find everything on the internet
- Site Search:search just this site for words or phrases

Of course, that "odds & ends" list--general resources--necessarily has to be a somewhat arbitrary selection, in that the entire internet itself is the broadest "general" resource in human history. We have thus not sought to comprehensively present every major resource on the internet but have presented what, more or less arbitrarily, seem to us to be either really important resources or (more commonly) less-well-known but still useful resources. We have especially tried to select "gateway" type pages--pages that are themselves collections of links to yet other sites; thus, starting from generalities on our page, you can reach much larger amounts of relevant information than we could assemble here.
But since, as we said, the entire internet is itself a "resource," you can also, right from this site, search the entire internet for all kinds information using quite a number of different and powerful search tools, some general and some specific.
Many of the pages you can reach from these links will themselves have links to other sites of interest. When you follow a link to a new site you think you might want to come back to, be sure to use your browser's "BookMark" facility right away (before you forget) to save your place for later returns.
Also, many of these pages will be parts of a larger site; the list here focusses on the most local information. From such pages, you can usually travel "up" the site by way of click-on links provided on the page by the operator of the site. But--if you can't find such a link (usually they're labelled "Home" or "Previous Page")--you can simply edit the URL that your browser is showing you. Most of the time, the URL your browser will display will look something more or less like this:
http://www.somewhere.com/whatever/finetune/maybemore/apagename.html
Just click your cursor at the end of the shown URL, however long, and backspace-erase until you come to the last single slash. In the made-up example above, you would be left with:
http://www.somewhere.com/
Then press the <Enter> key and you should be at the site's main page.
