Wichahpi Commemorative Stone Wall, Florence

This place is amazing. The story of Tom Hendrix's great, great, great grandmother is inspiring (and heartbreaking). It was so touching to see the heart and soul Tom put into building this tribute to her. And heartwarming to see the momentos that visitors have added over time. It's almost totally in the shade so on a hot day it's comfortable in the shade. There are a couple of spots to sit down (he made stone benches). Allow time for a peaceful stroll and also the opportunity to speak with the family members. On the day we went, Tom's son Trace was there to share stories and answer questions. You park across the street on the right side of the road.

Interesting place for a quick stop. A great story. A must on your bucket list!
