A towel with Japanese characters washed up on a rock at Shell Beach on The Sea Ranch last week. Lynda Frye was walking with a friend when she found it. Of course we don't know if it is from the tsunami but it certainly could be. This is a very unusual item to find on the beach.

We will be alert in the weeks and months ahead to see what might show up on our beaches from a terrible disaster half the world away.

Thanks to Lynda for allowing me to share her photo with you here.
