Wow! She sounds just like the kind of woman I would've wanted to have been if I'd lived back then. The card playing, drinking, partying life she led sounds just right! Of course, if I HAD lived back then, I doubt I would've been so brave as to toss away society's chains for a life of freedom such as she chose. I've been up to Coit a few times, but have yet to go inside. Isn't it a shame that when one lives someplace, they often don't take the time to actually visit their own City? I'm working on that, though, and hope to see those frescoes before too long. Chloe Hi, Richard,

I knew Coit Tower had been left to the City by Mrs. Coit, but I never knew the extent of her love for those who braved the fires. Wow! She sounds just like the kind of woman I would’ve wanted to have been if I’d lived back then. The card playing, drinking, partying life she led sounds just right! Of course, if I HAD lived back then, I doubt I would’ve been so brave as to toss away society’s chains for a life of freedom such as she chose.

I’ve been up to Coit a few times, but have yet to go inside. Isn’t it a shame that when one lives someplace, they often don’t take the time to actually visit their own City? I’m working on that, though, and hope to see those frescoes before too long.
