This weekend is to be great weather, and a good excuse to get out and explore neighborhoods.

There's a great group, Cultural Tourism DC, and this weekend, they will have many tours;

The Capitol Hill Saturday and Sunday tours are:

• Capitol Hill (mostly fully booked)
• NoMa tours will showcase the area north of Mass Ave & Union Station
• There will be H St and H St alleys tours
• Capitol Riverfront (aka Navy Yard/Baseball Park)
• and a whole set of others, as this program is growing

For more info, check out their calendar, and have a great tour.

In prior tours, I've gotten my dog to walk with me, which has worked well for both.
