If you should have the opportunity to meet the daughter and sister of one of your blogging idols and take them on a tour of your college, I would highly recommend you do it. (I'm big on recommendations lately!)
Do it even if you end up walking around in a torrential downpour and are still cold with wet feet when you return home 8 hours later so in need of a hot bath that you can barely string together a post. You will be so delighted with Middle Child and Jo that it will have been more than worth it.
Also, if you Google images of torrential downpour to use on your post you may end up feeling that perhaps you're a tad prone to hyperbole and also a total weather wimp.
It looked like this--only wetter!
Walking in the rain has its place and time -- otherwise it is just not fun!!!!

Wow. I can't remember the last time I was soaked to the bone.

Thank you, she had a wonderful time...and a hot shower too!

I last got soaked to the skin for a concert last summer...this being England it took an awfully long time to warm back up!
Glad you had fun - I love the new photo!

Sometimes you just have to get wet to have fun. Oh wait that didn't come out right. What I mean is sometimes getting wet is fun. Um...You know what I mean.

Raining here too! I stayed in all day yesterday, but getting wet and having fun sounds awesome!

You are so lucky.

I think I'll pass on the walk in the rain, or snow or any other foul weather walking for now.
I would love to meet fellow bloggers though.

Wet = Bad, unless you got wet on purpose. Great new picture!

Oh I always say that if you are going to get wet you might as well do it properly. There comes that point where you just go for it and drip! Well, I do. And we get plenty of rain practice in the UK.
You have a new profile photo - and very lovely you look too.

Lucky you! About the meeting up with blogging people... not so much luck about the rain. I hope you stomped in some puddles and had fun, regardless!
Lovely new pic of you. :)
