Reichenbach day

Saturday morning, Sam and I joined The Pink House family for a Reichenbach day gathering at Multnomah Falls. The event was hosted by The Blue Carbuncle Society, but open to the public, and they encouraged Victorian mourning clothing. We were all over that. 
I pieced together my outfit with thrift store finds, altered the jacket, and threw together a bustle, but just a few days before, found Sam and actual Victorian coat at Magpie Vintage. We were all kinda jealous. 
The procession was really nice, and we all posed for a picture to Save Undershaw, the home of the Sir Arthur Conan Doyle (it's in danger of becoming developed and not preserved as his home, sign the petition if you have a moment!). 
After that we went to lunch at Edgfield, and strolled around a bit, finding a little shack that's been turned into a bar and smoking room. Sam smoked his pipe a la Sherlock Holmes, and we both had a bit of bourbon. But we did kind of freak out the tourists when they walked in.
