This Easter Sunday represents 11 days post-surgery. Had a fairly good day due to having a fairly good night of sleep. Yesterday was a down day; today was an up day. Hence the image of this Ferris wheel, taken along the waterfront in Seattle with the Zero Image wide-angle pinhole camera.

This is among my favorite pinhole photos - the perspective from the ground shows the heft, the weight of the massive machine and its immense height, which almost induces in me a sense of vertigo. The ride, called The Great Wheel, is 175 feet tall and weighs 170,000 pounds (85 tons). Each of the 42 gondolas is heated/air conditioned and can hold 8 people. It’s mighty Big.

I trust that the number of up days will increase as my recovery progresses. I transition into the second phase of recovery in a couple of days - should start to bend my leg. Will be glad when that happens and I can actually DO something instead of just sitting and lying around.
