The author stands at the water's edge next to a Japanese 'dock float' at Agate Beach, Oregon on June
20, 2012, one of four such structures washed out to sea from the March, 2011 tsunami in Japan. Two
others were found on nearby Japanese islands with the third's whereabouts unknown. This one managed
the 5000 mile journey across the Pacific Ocean in 15 months. The dock weighs 165 tons, and measures
66x19x7 feet in size. This image was taken by the author's wife, Karen.
