GOLDENDALE, Wash. —

The Maryhill Museum near Goldendale says attendance increased 17 percent this year to nearly 46,000 visitors.

Executive Director Colleen Schafroth told The Yakima Herald-Republic the poor economy apparently led people to look for affordable attractions, closer to home - like the Rodin (roh-DAN') sculptures at the museum.
