AS IF THERE WASN'T ENOUGH to do this weekend already, here's an event of note for those who love big stone Gothic structures: The National Cathedral is celebrating its centennial on Saturday. There'll be cake, music, arts and other festivities that go along with a 100th anniversary. For a full list of events, click here.

Meanwhile, just down the hill is the Greek festival at another cathedral, St. Sophia at Massachusetts Avenue and 36th Street NW. There's nothing more enjoyable than snagging a bottle of Retsina and a gyro platter and relaxing on a bench during a beautiful weekend.
