Recovery

First a Huge Crane helped raise the shattered fishing fleet from the harbor floor, then this enormous Dredge, loaded barge after barge with the tons of smelly silt that the tsunami had rinsed into the harbor, raising the floor of the boat basin, then a few new docks were put into place and a smaller crane brought in to move and repair the channel markings

@sarasdadandmom yes, the barges and crane are gone, the boats still tie to the side because the docks are not replaced

Little by little (on a very big job) it's looking like "home" again.

I've often wondered where everything goes after events such as a Tsunami. This is really interesting.

@denezi one of the issues we face here, is that we are in a place things wash to from Alaska and Japan, so they are estimating that a debris field from Japan could start showing ip on our beaches in 2 to 3 years. The huge tsunami we had in 1964 was from an Alaskan earthquake and some of that stuff, broken buildings and the city pool, were used to build a sea wall and jetty.

It takes a long time and a lot of work to get things back to normal again. Beautiful capture of the results, Dixie. That tsunami was a huge and damaging force. Japan is still reeling from that.
