PANAMA CITY BEACH :: Employees stood in the parking lot Wednesday afternoon and cried as they watched flames engulf a family owned landmark restaurant.
Smoke began to creep into the Treasure Ship, built by Thelma and her late husband William Nomberg in 1978, just after 3 p.m. Within an hour, charred beams of the giant replica pirate ship's skeleton were visible through holes burned in its side.
"I'm still in such a state of shock, I don't know what to say," Nomberg said from her home in Dothan, Ala., "except it was a very pretty thing, and I had hoped it would be there for years."
Her daughter, Lisa Nomberg Todd, said no one was injured in the fire, which a cook first noticed when he came outside to read the day's special from a menu board.
Channel 7 broke the story, but their writing sucked....
Here's the link anyway.
