The prompt: Tower
On March 13, 1994 – the hottest March 13th on record for San Francisco – my husband and I climbed Coit Tower in Telegraph Hill. All 210 feet. To reach the observation tower at the top – with its 360 degree view of the city.
We had just arrived in California for a much anticipated weeklong vacation. Jet lag hadn’t set in yet.
The long climb…well worth it.

That’s a huge tower! And a hot climb, I bet. Was it breezy at the top?

Cool photo. I’ve lived in CA most of life, born in S.F., never been to Coit tower! A new “must” on my list. Thanks for sharing.

Wow, congratulations! That’s quite a climb, especially after traveling to a new city. Did you have fun in California? I’m living in LA, and it’s truly a beautiful state.
Blessings,
