a pretty good 180 days

Six months into this thing, it seems like it’s really working. In our almost 250 posts, we caught the raid on Velvet and all of that mess, we broke how close Cafe Gutenberg came to closing, helped spread the word on the painting over of Trask’s Princess Diana mural, and offered many many many ways to to get out and enjoy yourself. Along the way, we’ve seen great new places like LuLu’s, GlobeHopper, Halligan, and Savor open the doors.

Help us keep up the pace: please drop a line and let us know about anything that we can share with the community and the rest of the city.

    Thank you John M for all you do. I live in Church Hill and frequent CHPN and now, through your good graces, am able to check out the rest of the goings on in Richmond neighborhoods.

    Let’s talk…you asked for an interview and I am ready for someone to write a book, a biography…you interested? I don’t ask to many people to be an inner part of my life…until all this crap happened, I was a very private person…now the whole world knows, so its no secret anymore, but I only ask certain people to be a part of my inner life…so again, are you interested? You are not a “one sided” of the issue person, that makes me respect you even more…let me know…
