Description
My father, Mike Johnson, returned home from Vietnam in 1971. After a few months of uncertainty, he decided to learn the block business as well. In 1974, he married Maureen Gant and joined my Grandfather in supplying masonry to Los Angeles County throughout the 1980's. In 1986, their curiosity brought them to the Grand Valley to take a look at a masonry supply retailer in Grand Junction, Colorado. I very distinctly remember my Dad saying, Girls, we are moving to Grand Junction in 5 years. I was like.."Yeah right Dad, WHATEVER!" (Come on- I was a Valley Girl in the 80's!) So, to my 15 year old dismay, 5 years later we moved to Grand Junction and opened the Brickyard. Thank goodness they got us out of L.A. in one piece!
