#Weekend
------------------------------------------------------------
Weekend weather: We dug ourselves out of Jonas and now were swimming through May. Bring it, Mother Nature! We know Summer is coming and we are so ready. Temperatures in the 70’s this weekend with stormy skies on Saturday but sunshine on Sunday.

Awesome events you can attend this weekend: Hit up the DC Testy Fest (http://famousdc.us2.list-manage.com/track/click?u=2951c1183274de2b68e45d944&id=f93025ca48&e=fa3c9b039d)  for some delicious Rocky Mountain oysters; Pregame in the Bullpen and catch a Nats game (http://famousdc.us2.list-manage.com/track/click?u=2951c1183274de2b68e45d944&id=960853d2f5&e=fa3c9b039d) ; Grab a beer at the D.C. Hopfest (http://famousdc.us2.list-manage.com/track/click?u=2951c1183274de2b68e45d944&id=13e475234b&e=fa3c9b039d) ; Try up to 40 different bites of local cuisine at the Taste of Arlington (http://famousdc.us2.list-manage.com/track/click?u=2951c1183274de2b68e45d944&id=23a42ab59c&e=fa3c9b039d) .

#Watch
------------------------------------------------------------
Attention all ball busters: Grab your party pants... err, leave them at home because this is one party where they're optional. This weekend is the 12th annual Rocky Mountain Oyster Festival in DC aka DC Testy Fest (http://famousdc.us2.list-manage1.com/track/click?u=2951c1183274de2b68e45d944&id=a2c5ee9c8c&e=fa3c9b039d)  and it's sure to be a real ball.

We sat down with Jayne Visser (http://famousdc.us2.list-manage1.com/track/click?u=2951c1183274de2b68e45d944&id=b6b3c9f854&e=fa3c9b039d)  of the Montana State Society to find out exactly what separates this event from the rest and we can honestly say it didn't require much explaining after being confronted with a silver platter full of bull testicles - no bull sh*t.
