College Tours St. Olaf and U of Minn

We drove to St. Olaf on a Thursday, in a driving rain.  Cold (40F), windy.  Arrived for a visit, was greeted by our very own guide, had a great one on one tour of the entire campus.  After the tour, Madeline met with an admission officer one on one, and eventually we the parents joined.  We were very favorably impressed with all we saw.  The campus is a visual gem.

We drove to MPLS at the end of the day, St. Louis Park to be specific.  Checked into our AirBnB quarters, owned by Rachael, or gracious host.

The next day we entered into an official U of Minnesota dog and pony show, with tour.  This time we shared our tour guide with a dozen other folks, most of them from Wisconsin.
