Judged: 1 1 1 neat-freak Maura living in an unpacked room. girl on her floor (and i KNOW dorm floors!!!) not even knowing she lived there after at least a week into the new semester. Maura possibly staying off-campus with a friend, one that caused ???? emotional upheaval for maura because of Billy??? This would also explain a possible driveway for her leave the Saturn. Why wasn't the saturn cleaned out, vacuumed, etc. by someone as neat as Maura if she was just about to trade it in??? That would sound more like her. was there ever any evidence that she might've broken into a seasonally locked-up restroom at the Jigger Johnson State Park, if it WAS indeed her in Haverhill, IF she WAS the one running on 112??? No-one ever (IIRC) responded to my question on the old MMM board: Did Maura have one of those thin-thermal-blanket things in her trunk emergency kit --- either included IN the kit or added to it? That would've helped if she was trying to get through the night. Please consider the importance of how little she took with her, how these items represented a small collection of things from people she loved, possibly for comfort, for support, for courage. |

Great questions are being asked here! Great thinking! Good to see it! The pieces will fit together after all.

Judged: 1 1 1 Or possibly because she intended to return them. I mean absolutely no disrespect whatsoever to Maura's boyfriend Bill Rausch with these thoughts, but we have been told that their relationship had its rocky points in the past -- and what relationship doesn't?-- maybe Maura, for whatever reason, had determined she didn't want to marry him after all. This could explain (1) her upset at work in the wee hours of Friday Feb 6 (earlier she had talked with a sister and the sister was having boyfriend problems, maybe the conversation caused Maura to think about boyfriend problems of her own and caused a realization that she no longer wanted to be in her relationship)...(2) why she urgently needed some time away (privacy to think, to work through her feelings, to gather courage to make a breakup)...(3) why she would head to the White Mtns (a kind of spiritual base for her)...(4) why Bill heard what sounded like whimpering or muffled crying on the cellphone message he received but she didn't actually leave a verbal message (she was going to tell him her decision, but of course not leave it in a message). It could explain why she never used the cellphone again, because it was on his cellphone plan and being paid for by him or his family and she didn't want to "take" anything from them under the new circumstances. |
This really makes a lot of sense. It covers all the bases and just seems to "gel." It is an especially good explanation of the cell phone mystery. Maybe the feelings of someone who might get deployed to Iraq or Afghanistan were taken into consideration first. Good thinking, here! |

Did I see something about the Russell Road area in Arlandria? I don't understand how that is connected to this. Maybe because of the George Washington Memorial in Alexandria? Seems very far-fetched to me.

Judged: 1 1 1 whiston, There were friends and family that posted on both of the old forums. I recall her supervisor posting several times. Maybe her friends had nothing additional to add as they had all made statements to LE. To be perfectly honest here, I wish I had saved a lot more from the 2 forums. I can see it is frustrating trying to find information after so long. Maura had a very close group of friends whom had kept in touch since grade school. |

Judged: 1 1 Just before 1 p.m. she called Dominic and Linda Salamone, a couple who own a rental condominium at the Seasons at Attitash Resort in Bartlett, New Hampshire. Maura's family, which frequented the Bartlett area, had stayed at the Seasons, though never at this condominium. The Salamones don't remember the conversation with Maura but they are certain she did not book their condominium. To do so on such short notice would have been impossible, explained Linda Salamone. "We don't operate like a hotel." Rentals must be booked far in advance in order for the Salamones to drop a key in the mail. The call to the Salamones lasted about three minutes, records show. Linda Salamone speculates she might have offered Maura recommendations on other places to stay, though her memory was foggy by the time police finally interviewed her - nearly a year after Maura went missing." [from article by Maribeth Conway in South Shore Express this spring] No indication where Maura got their number. Could have been online if she was checking on the Seasons at Attitash. Her checking about a condo rental kind of suggests she was looking for a place that had a kitchen, not just a room to sleep in. |

Good post Advocator, If you are a timeshare owner, most rentals are placed through an outside agency, whom may have notified Maura that the Salamones unit was available. |

Can't answer many of your questions...but I do know there are NO bathrooms at Jigger Johnson. All thcampgrounds in that section of 112 are state run, no facility campgrounds. You drive in put your $ in a box and rough it. A couple at the other end of 112 are the same way. |

Correction--Jigger Johnson now has toilets and showers!!!

hi advocator, my thought was that Maura never spoke with the Salomones they just happened to have owned a condo at attitash.they dont know if they spoke with Maura.did she call to speak with someone she was meeting.we don't know yet.who else that Maura might know would be there.did the Salamones actually run part of or the whole resort.this is not the same as Maura calling the Salamones by any stretch.i am trying to dig up a fact here and not be critical of anybody.was ther an outside agency for the condo or condos .i am still trying to dig up a phone number for the Salamones.did they have any connection to stowe V.T. take care philip

hi all the day Maura left she called a umass dorm.' the number appeared to be a dead end as the person had moved on'.what the hell does that mean.who left in february. who had access to the empty room.who was supposed to move in . take care philip

Philip, I suspect they mean (and may have in fact said in the article) "has now moved on."
Meaning simply if you had an on-campus phone number one year while you were in Room A, when you moved the next year to Room B, you had a different phone number. Another possibility, if the number was off-campus (I don't recall it being specified) in college towns a lot of phone numbers turn over very quickly, as students rent off-campus housing each year. But my assessment was that it seemed to have been a campus number. Someone assigned to a room that was gone the next year--NOT in February, as you posit here. |

If she were headed toward Attitash, then 112 is way off base. The resorts at Attitash/Bear Peak are right on 302. Where in Vermont was Maura searching for directions for? Was it another ski/resort area? |

whiston, Attitash resort is a timeshare community where rentsls are sublet to an outside group. They possibly forwarded her request for a rental to the Salamones whom she did speak to. |
