The Times - Serving Waitsburg, Dayton and the Touchet Valley

Vance Orchard

This photo was shot by photographer Vance Orchard as young Times publisher Tom Baker considered how he was going to get the Dec. 23 Christmas issue out as the office basement filled with water during the flood of 1964. The issue was a bit smudgy due to cold ink from a lack of heat, but the paper went out on schedule.
