Real Estate and Reston, VA: District of Columbia

This weekend the 5th Annual Green Festival comes to the Washington D.C. Convention Center.

We all know that there has been an increased interest lately in all things 'Green.' This is an opportunity to find out more about how to integrate these changes into your life and your home.

I am especially proud that my husband's company, Ardently Green, is featured this weekend at the Festival. This morning Fox5 Television did a story about the Festival and Bob Weatherwax (the aforementioned husband) and Jim McKenna were featured in the story. You can watch the clip at:

Bob and Jim will also be speaking at 3:00 pm on Sunday. Their Discussion is titled:

Taming the Energy Monster for Your Wallet and World
Jim McKenna and Bob Weatherwax, Ardently Green

Stop by the Ardently Green booth if you get to the festival. They have a lot of information about making your home more energy efficient.

I hope you get a chance to stop by!

If you are looking for something to do--and to save money while doing it--this week is 'Restaurant Week' in Washington D.C.  During this week 170 restaurants offer fixed price dining options: 3-course lunches for $20, and 3-course dinners for $30.08.

It is possible to make reservations for this event through opentable.com.  Because not all restaurants offer both lunch and dinner options, be sure to confirm that they are participating and that they are offering their fixed price meal at the time of your reservation.

This is a great opportunity to try some restaurants that you might other wise consider too pricey.  Have fun!
