Notes
Back of photo has 2 dates, Jan 23 1985 and Jan 23 1986. The 1986 date is a sticker add on, while the 1985 date is stamped on. The 1985 date is believed to be correct.
Hotel Manager George More is seen with some of the boys around 6 a.m. in the Gordon's main beverage room. Flood waters covered the tiled floor to a depth of several inches. Clean-up crews were on the job before noon and the hotel was back in business the same day, reflecting the swiftness with which the water dropped.
