One of my best friends, LWs, has been diligently working very hard for a high-profile client. That high-profile client just happens to be U.S. Department of Energy - she is specifically working on The Solar Decathlon happening right now at the National Mall in Washington, DC. If you do go, tell her I sent you - she's the gorgeous blond that's in charge, will most likely have a lanyard around her neck.
The Solar Decathlon, for those of you who do not know what it is, "joins 20 college and university teams in a competition to design, build, and operate the most attractive and energy-efficient solar-powered house". It is open to the public so we can all enjoy the great home designs, but more importantly how green the designs are.
The Solar Decathlon houses will be open for public tours 11 a.m.–3 p.m. Monday–Friday and 10 a.m.–5 p.m. Saturdays and Sundays. Note that all homes will be closed Wed., Oct. 14. The weather this weekend should be great for checking out the Solar Village, but if you can't make it, check out their daily photos.

Christina you are too sweet! I am not in charge, but I would be happy to answer any questions that the readers have about the Decathlon and give tours of the homes should they happen to stop by :) You can find me in the media trailer. Thank you so much for writing about this.
