Ted is a student intern working on the Mount Sutro tower, located along the southern hills of
San Francisco. Teddie is sent to Mount Sutro by her Los Angeles television station where she is to assist in the placement of the tower’s first television antenna. Ted and Teddie soon find they have more than their name in common as they work on Mount Sutro. They find love’s attraction there. Their time together is brief, however, as they find themselves separated shortly thereafter, one working the “odd” days on the tower while the other works the even. Their love lives on along the tower’s legs, however, as Ted and Teddie find the elevator that runs through the lower and upper legs of the Sutro Tower a perfect place to scratch out daily notes to each other. They finally agree to meet the next Sunday. They can’t foresee that they will not meet again from this lofty reach for nearly twenty years.
