How Lucky

So we made a detour to our schedule last night to see amazing activity at Ford Theater.
Notice the men on the steps in the picture above?  Well tonight was the 150th anniversary of the evening President Lincoln was shot. Do you know who shot him? So we were able to be at the memorial vigil.

All tour leaders were dress in clothing of the time.  
Except for the umbrella because it was raining! After Lincoln was shot he was taken across the street to a home and later died.  Can you name this house?
The pinkish green one.
