As is Maine's style, people have already jumped to help the folks who lost their homes and businesses. Q106.5 was on the air from Milo encouraging people to drop off cash or anything needed to set up housekeeping. They asked for trailers and trailers appeared.

I saw in the paper that the fire in Milo was determined to have been set!

They have spoken with a "person of interest".

That it had been set, behind the pub, was on the local TV news last night too...
And that was my intuition when I first heard of it... I will keep my thoughts/speculation to myself, but I will be VERY interested to learn what transpires.

I found this link to photos (http://www.flickr.com/photos/kendrapietras/ - broken link) (lots of them) shot by one of the local photographers...

This is what happens when you drive a chip truck too fast, crest a hill and find a trash truck and a personal truck slowed to make a right turn. He clipped a neighbor's truck before he put it in the ditch. She's very fortunate - she's not hurt and her truck has only minor damage. The driver is fine. This is a friend's lawn on Rt 1 in Waite.

Now if it only could have landed nice and evenly spread out in the flower beds!

Any news on the person of interest in the fires?

Ha, I got the same treatment from Paige.. maybe they needed a break from all that mothering!!
