Lewiston, April 23, 1997.
The big apartment house at 56 Maple St. was fully ablaze, and on the streets around it, madness was underway.
Men and women were running every which way, some holding terrified children in both arms. Many were sobbing, others were half dressed, a few just wandered in a daze as though they believed they must be dreaming.
Screams seemed to come from all directions. Screams you could barely hear over the roar of fire. Some wailed with fear and anguish, others were calling out names as they stumbled through the disordered throngs in the street.
“Jody? Oh, my God! Jody, where are you? Has anyone seen Jody?”

The snow was light and fluffy, easy to shovel and great for the skiers.
“It’s a beautiful sight to see Mother Nature and snowmakers working side by side turning the mountain into a winter wonderland,” Sunday River ski resort raved on their website. “The snow has started piling up and the flakes are still flying.”
“This is not my cup of tea,” Kim Brown said while clearing her car of snow Thursday in Lewiston. Brown recently moved to Maine from Florida to be closer to family. “My Flip-flops are still in the front seat of the car,” said Brown.
