Maggie was born and Raised in Kane, Pennsylvania. Maggie and her husband Harvey Johnson moved from Lexington Kentucky where they both spent 15 years working towards becoming a full time Keys residents. They made the Florida Keys their full time home in 1990. The first “home” they chose was a 36 ft. Marine Trader Trawler moored at the City Marina in Key West. Discovering the size was a bit restrictive and having the opportunity to own and live aboard the boat of their dreams, they purchased a 42 ft. Trumpy built in 1921 named “Cotton in Augusta”. All wood with an interior of Dade county Pine, this was an experience of a lifetime.

In 1992 Harvey and Maggie purchased and opened the Keys only floating Restaurant. The restaurant was named Captain Runagrounds, and became a part of Key West history. The locals’ favorite for 15 years had many stories to tell, and some that will never be told.

In 1997 Maggie started her career with The Key West Golf Club Development, The Village at Hawks Cay, and Roosevelt Annex. All projects were in the beginning stages of development. Her duties then included managing contracts, execution of inventories, assisting the communities’ future owners in every aspect of selection of units, interiors and finally closing on their new Keys home. That continues today.

Maggie’s immediate family consists of her husband Harvey, the leader of the pack and her pug dog Tugboat, a rescued 7 year old. In her off time she works diligently with various rescue organizations, her other passion. They still reside in the Key West area and likely will for a very long time.
