Rock Rest Lodge

WHO IS THE LADY IN RED? During the summer of 1923 a young woman named Molly Barton took up residence in the famous Rock Rest Lodge Brothel and Speakeasy. Peaches Malone, the madam at the time, had an eye for talent, and with her bobbed red hair, fiery disposition and penchant for beaded dresses, Molly was the consummate Flapper. A favorite of the boys from Camp George West, Molly was relieving a young Lt. Williard of his tension when the playful drunken Col. Jock Tank Cotterson stole into the room and purloined Mollys clothing. Running out to the dance floor, Cotterson laughingly announced his caper to one and all, and promptly flung the garments into the rafters. The furious and naked Molly followed Tank Cotterson to the bar where she pummeled him with her fist and feet. After a shot of whiskey, and to the roar of the crowd, Molly climbed up the post like a crazed bathtub gin soaked monkey. She first reached her flaming red flapper dress (which she quickly donned) to the boos of the enlisted men. Next she found her knickers wedged in the rafters, then spied her bra hanging from the antlers of the huge stuffed moose mounted above the dance floor. With the agility of a cat, Molly crossed the joists. The crowd had reached a fever pitch of stomps and whistles when Molly lost her footing. Making a desperate grasp, Molly found herself hanging from the mooses snout. Suddenly, the mount gave way and Molly crashed to the floor. The giant beast tumbled down upon Molly, where his mighty antlers pierced the young girls heart. Molly wanders the Rock Rest Lodge to this day, doomed to eternally look for the bra that she will never find. Women from around the world now come to the Rock Rest to leave an offering for poor Molly in hopes of ending her suffering. If you choose to do so, you will find them hanging above the dance floor in the back room.
