Siuslaw River Bridge, Florence, Oregon

Florence is located on the Oregon Coast at the mouth of the Siuslaw River about the same latitude as Eugene, Oregon. Florence has hosted the Rhododendron Festival annually since 1908. Florence is also known as the site of the exploding whale, an incident when the Oregon State Highway Division tried to remove a beached whale by dynamite—with unintended results.
