Open Houses

Now that the snow has just about melted off all the sidewalks and streets, it’s about time to enjoy some sunny — I mean more snow weather from the sounds of it.

Once again the storm falls on a weekend so bundle up, have yourself an open house snow venture and hope that you get to work from home on Monday. To see the entire DC Open House List, click here.
