The Woman in the Orange Dress

Here is our first addition. A very off the beaten path place in Arlington. It is in the Days Inn on the corner of Pershing and Arlington Blvd. Aphra said it reminded her of a movie she saw but couldn't remember the name. All she did remember was a woman in an orange dress.  The front lobby is a very "House on top of Mount Rushmore in North by Northwest" kind of place. On the second floor there is a space with a lamp and two nice big chairs. It would work for someone who really doesn't want to be found. 
“Everything in the world exists in order to end up as a book.”
