magical places: coit tower

sometimes, even in the summer, SF can have gorgeous days. a few weeks ago, a friend and i climbed to the top of Coit Tower. look at those views! a blimp! built in 1933, Coit Tower is said to be shaped like a firehose, due to Lillian Coit's (who bequeathed monies to the city to build the monument) affinity for fire-chasing, and fire-fighters. sure! who knows - it's pretty and it's only $7 to get up there. so if you're in SF, and it's an unseasonably nice day, make the trek up to the top.
