Claude Labbe (DC, MD, VA - Your Busy Life)

This is a fun tour, and you are sure to learn while having fun and enjoying the day AND seeing a handful of newly redone homes on Capitol Hill in Washington, DC.
This tour is Saturday, Oct 15, 10-4; tickets at Fragers', Schneiders, and Hill's Kitchen.

For all the info you need, check out Renovator's Tour's website. The banner says 2010, but ignore that, it's really Saturday 10/15/2011

Washington DC is a large city, and all that comes with it.

However, there are very strong communities & neighborhoods, essentially, little villages.

Bloomingdale is one of those, with an entire neighborhood of large townhomes, many restored, and others on the way to being restored.

The tour has been going on for a few years, and is always a great way to spend a leisurely Saturday afternoon (Oct 15, 1-5pm) there's also an Art Show... really, just a nice way to spend the day.

Check out their Bloomingdale HomeTour website for more details, and hopefully, we'll see you there.

For the past several years, the street is closed for a day long festival.

This Saturday, Sept 17, 2001;

On H St NE from 8th to 14th St.

Very family friendly, and a different way to enjoy the community.

It usually gets pretty crowded, and it shouldn't be that wonderful muggy DC September, it should be pleasant.

For ful details, check out their site http://www.hstreet.org/

Enjoy the party, come back in the evening for more fun

Art Galleries & Dining Adventure on H St NE

I am grabbing the info, spreading it around. The H St/Altas Distict is definitely buzzing, and this should and does speak well to the new homeowers and buyers in the neighborhood.
