 Sender:  jschwab 
Oregon, Yaquina Bay Bridge. The graceful span of Yaquina Bay Bridge is framed by spruce and coastal pine as a 44-foot Coast Guard motor life boat heads for open sea. Like many coastal Oregon bridges built during the Depression it was designed by state engineer Conde McCullough. With a span of 3260 feet it was completed in 1936, standing 245 feet at its highest point and 138 feet at deck level
