The Ryde Hotel

Posted by batik bagoes

Tonight our yacht club has our first dinner meeting of the year. We are going to The Ryde hotel. It was built in 1927 at the peak of the prohibition era. It was one of the first places I learned about when I start boating in the delta. How many of the stories are true no one knows. The lower level of this hotel used to be a speakeasy, and there are rumors that it was once a bordello. I'm sure it probably was. You can read about the hotels history HERE.

Hubby and I have been here before both by car and by boat. It's a lovely old place with great food and lots to see. Some of our yacht club members are spending the night as Sunday I have my first Board of Directors meeting.

Our rear commodore wanted to do different venues this year and he's starting off very nicely. I'm looking forward to a fun evening. The theme is the roaring 20s. How appropriate. I hope everyone has a great weekend.
