Awesome and exciting news to share!

I have awesome and exciting news to share! The dream of pursuing my writing and codependency coaching career by selling Johnny’s to someone who will honor not only it’s place in history, but it’s place in the community is finally coming true. My good friend Pete Lago, who has worked many motorcycle rallies at Johnny’s, […]

My 22nd Johnny’s Saint Patrick’s Day Celebration

My how time flies. In some ways it’s hard to believe that I am preparing for my 22nd Johnny’s Saint Patrick’s Day celebration. In other ways it’s holy crap, here we go again! When I bought Johnny’s in January of 1996 I had many wonderful customers who remembered the wild and crazy celebrations that marked […]

Larry Nicholson was a Wonderful Friend – We Will Miss Him More Than I Can Say

On June 16, 2015, in Happening at Johnny's, History, Local People, News, by Charisse

When I purchased Johnny’s twenty years ago Larry Nicholson was one of my first regular customers. He and Bob Yant, who we lost in February of 2012, met for lunch at 11:00 a.m. on the dot Monday through Saturday. Lar Bear, as I affectionately called him, would return at 5:00 p.m. Monday through Friday to […]
