#WEEKEND
Weather: We hate to say it but this weekend looks dreary. Skies will be mostly cloudy with a chance of rain on Saturday and Sunday – perfect weekend to binge on the new House of Cards season if you ask us.
Awesome events you can attend this weekend: Hit up the DC Independent Film Festival all weekend long; If you dare exit DC, Trevor Noah will be at the Hippodrome on Saturday; Join the DC Whiskey Walk and try eight different premium whiskeys around Dupont Circle.
