In short, the Ryans are
hands-on and largely selftaught with every aspect of
the two restaurants.
The couple had their first
child, Boone, in February
this year, which has forced
them especially Caitlin
to become adept at multitasking, while Boone is
becoming a familiar face
at both establishments.

While most of the headlines about homelessness in


Dane County have focused
on Madison in recent years,
there is a need for housing
in outlying communities.
That need lead to a series
of partnerships in Stoughton last year and the group
Housing Advocacy Team
of Stoughton hopes a
grant from Dane County
will help them provide
housing to homeless families in the city.
The Rev. Mark Peterson of Covenant Lutheran
Church said the group
hopes to purchase and
renovate the former Serenity House on Dvorak Court
to provide housing. The
physical structure would be
supplemented with services
from groups like Joining
Forces for Families and the
Stoughton Area Resource
Team.
We firmly believe that
everyone needs a place to
hang their hat, Peterson
said.
The group submitted a
request for $700,000 from

Although theyve lived


in Stoughton for only three
years, Cale and Caitlin
Ryan have made a mark
on the community through
their two businesses,
Famous Yetis Pizza and
Wendigo restaurant.
They opened the pizza
place in January 2012
and just a few months
later a fire devastated the

restaurant and other businesses in a small strip mall


on North Page Street. The
Ryans reopened Famous
Yetis in September that
year.
Then last August, the
couple launched Wendigo
in a historic building on
East Main Street with the
aim of bringing more good
food to Stoughton diners.
The restaurant uses lots
of locally grown produce
in recipes that the Ryans

created themselves, drawing on their years of experience working at Whole


Foods Market in Madison.
Neither Cale nor Caitlin
had run a restaurant before,
yet they created both businesses from scratch. Cale
serves as chief cook (he
doesnt call himself a chef)
and overseer of the operations, and Caitlin manages the front of the house.
They also do their own
bookkeeping, payroll and

Housner takes over for Dale

Housner will be retiring

Im really looking forward to it, Housner told the

ever did was at a neighbors
house a few years ago. The
man salvaged everything,
and was having some trouble giving items away,
which Igl took notice of.
So I came home the
very next day and made
him a little pigeon out of
butter knives, because he
was always into passenger
pigeons, he said. I took it
to him, and he started crying. It just meant so much
to have something back.

Legos and Lincoln Logs, or
simply taking stuff apart to

I still do a lot of that
because everything you take
apart has something unique in
it, he told the Hub on Friday.
As a student, he took a
couple art and design classes, but didnt really do much
with any of it until about
five years ago, when he tried
to make a stand for an oversized hammock purchased
by his wife, Jodi. It didnt
take long before his creative

scrounge around his shop
to make small pieces for
around his yard. That, in
turn, got him into welding,
and then one thing led to
another, as friends and
neighbors started taking
notice.
Everybodys saying,
Oh, make me a piece, make
me a piece, Igl said. Pretty soon, I realized there was
a commercial value to it.
Everybodys like, Wow,
man, this stuff is so cool
you need to get bigger
stuff.
While Igl has a day job
that suits him fine, to help
scratch that artistic itch, he
and his wife, Jodi, have been
attending fine art shows
for the past two-and-a-half
years around the area, hauling around a trailer thats
packed full of his sculptures.
His art has done well, but

getting a first place in the


Spring Green Art Show was
a proud moment, and it was
recognition for work well
done that he never could
have imagined just a few
years ago.
Ive always had a hard
time understanding what
makes my pieces so different and unique than others,
Igl said. Ive been told that
other people do recycled art,
but they dont do it like I
do Im not sure what that
means.

It all starts with an eye

different, Igl said.


Now that hes gotten a
reputation as an artist, Igl
is starting to branch out to
find new materials for his
creations. His wife is a fan
of garage sales and auctions, which have been
good sources, but as more
people find out about him,
theyre inviting him to
pick through their attics
and garages in search of
inspiration.
Nowadays, people dont
want to throw it away, they
want to recycle, and they
see I can make a purpose
for it, he said.
Last week, the Igls traveled to Darlington, where
they met a lady whose
father, a serious collector of
items, had recently passed
away.
He was in retail hardware for 65 years, but she
had no use for any of it, he
said. (She said) come and
clean it up, not a dime (of
cost). We had that pick-up
truck just heaped full.
And there will be a surprise ending when hes
done, as well.
Im going to take her
fathers pieces and make
her something, even though
she said she didnt want
anything for it, Igl said.

new purposes can often

Igl, who documents and


photographs each of his
works, said hes always
working on multiple projects in his shop and has
completed more than 500
sculptures in the past several
years.
That number includes a
staggering variety and
quantity of birds, which
are always a big hit for art
collectors.
I cant build enough
birds, he chuckled. Any
time Im prepping for a
show, its make sure Ive
got (plenty).
While a simple project
could take a matter of hours,
larger ones can take weeks
or months. Igl said an average bird takes about four
hours.
During the winter, he
tends to work on fewer projects, just because of a lack
of art shows during the season, but Internet sales are
beginning to offset his off
season.
The first Packer preseason game, I finished up
a little pony with the barrel keg in the middle, Igl
said. I posted it at halftime,
and by the end of the fourth
quarter it was sold, with
three people bidding on this.
Right now, the return customers are really coming to
me, looking for pieces.
And dont look for Igl to
stop creating, because at this
point, he said he cant stop
now.
I get so much enjoyment
out of it, Igl said. Even if I
wasnt selling it, Id still be
building it.
Its taken off its my
passion right now.

Congratulations from the entire Cress team!

Letters to the editor

Why the uproar over Cecil the lion


when the unborn are murdered every day
Over the past few weeks I have
been completely confused and
bewildered by the reporting of
two senseless news stories.
One involved the killing of the
lion named Cecil, and the other
involved the brutal dismemberment of the fetus by Planned Parenthood doctors. (I have labeled
him as Baby John Doe.)
In the last Planned Parenthood
video, there is talk of disconnecting the fetuss brain while his
heart was still beating. Although
both stories sadden me greatly,
I have questioned why one story
has captured the lives of so many,
and received so much TV, print
and Internet press, while the other one seems to have little public
reaction or front page press time.
Is one story more brutal or hideous than the other? As I analyzed
these two stories, here is what I
concluded:
From a similarity standpoint,
both Cecil and John were hunted
and brutally killed for personal
gain. The hunter who shot Cecil
was looking for a trophy head to
mount over his mantel or on his
mancave wall. The hunter who
killed Baby John Doe was looking
to remove organs and tissue to sell
to the high bidder. This is where I
see the similarities ending.
Here are the differences that
play out in my mind. Cecil was
most likely born into a family

and received the love of a father,


mother, brothers and sisters. Cecil
got to experience all his senses.
He was able to touch, smell, hear,
see and feel all the things his
world was able to offer him. He
ultimately was able to love and
protect his family and pride before
his full life was ended prematurely with one, quick bullet.
Baby John maybe felt the compassion or love or his mother for
the possible 20 weeks, give or
take, and maybe not. Maybe John
felt the fear of his mother with the
circumstances she found herself
in, and then again, maybe not.
Baby John clearly never got to
feel the love of a father, mother,
brother or sister. He never got to
touch, smell, hear, see or feel anything this incredible world had to
offer him, and he clearly never
experienced love before his life
ended prematurely by a doctor.
I only hope his heart didnt beat
too long and that his suffering was
short.
Cecil was the king of his kingdom. Baby John Doe never got the 1890 125 years ago

to increase alderperson compensation to $300 per month, up
from the current rate of $200 per
month. The increase will commence in 2006 at the start of each
alderpersons new term of office.
The last time alderperson pay was
increased was with terms beginning in April 2000, according to
the city clerks office.
If Gov. Jim Doyles increase
in state education aid, from $458
million recently settled on by the
legislature to $861 million he
says is needed, is not overridden
by the legislature, the Stoughton
Area School District could realize a budget surplus of as much
as $725,000 for 2005-06, district
officials said Tuesday. This is
about as good as news as we can
get, said board of education
president Nic Dibble.

Asking for Wisdom


When Solomon was invited by God to
ask for whatever he wanted, he asked not
for wealth, or long life, or even good health,
but for wisdom, the discerning heart to
know right from wrong (1 Kings 3). While
those other things (wealth and health) are
good in their own way, or conditionally
good, wisdom is unconditionally good.
Wealth and health are only good if they are
associated with a person of goodwill, but if
the person in question is evil, their wealth
only aids them in their evil designs. But
wisdom, by its very nature, causes one to
be good. The wise man is the man who is
concerned, first and foremost, with doing
the right and good actions befitting him. It
would indeed be a contradiction to say that
someone was very wise but also prone to
frequent moral failings. This doesnt mean
that the wise person never does wrong.
No one except God is perfectly wise or
perfectly good. The wise person is always
striving to do the right thing, both in the
big and small decisions of life. It is noteworthy that Solomon, in the conclusion to
Ecclesiastes, a book highlighting the vanity
and emptiness of wealth and most human
endeavors, including the search for knowledge, says that our ultimate purpose is to
fear God and keep his commandments.
Christopher Simon, Metro News Service
Now all has been heard; here is the
conclusion of the matter: Fear God and
keep his commandments, for this is the
duty of all mankind. For God will bring
every deed into judgment, including every
hidden thing, whether it is good or evil.
Ecclesiastes 12: 13-14

Covenant: Churches plan Skype interaction during services despite time difference
Continued from page 1
voice, just beautiful,
Swenson said. So that was
a real gift for us.
Although the Puerto
Ricans were immersed in a
new culture, Swenson said
those from Covenant were
also exposed to different
languages and cultures during their visit, which created a greater appreciation
for each other.
Pastor Rivera said that,
for her, the best part of the
trip was seeing that our
people are connecting so
easily and laughing together. A few members who
traveled from Ascension
are fluent in both Spanish
and English.
Humor has no language
barrier, Swenson said.

An ocean apart
The trip was a great
opportunity for both
churches to finally interact
face-to-face.
We try to do things
together even though geographically we are apart,
Rivera said. Weve been
connecting through email
and sending some videos
but (now), getting to physically do things together
and worshipping together
Just meeting people and
getting to know the history
of Stoughton and finding
out how many things that
we are connected without
knowing it.
While Covenants congregation is much larger
than that of Ascension, the

city of Dorado is more than


twice the size of Stoughton. Rivera was intrigued
by how quiet it seemed in
Stoughton and its architecture with old buildings
since her church is in a
rural barrio not too far
from the touristy coast.
Even though theres a
(few) differences, you find
everything that you have at
home, too, Rivera said.
Despite liking the
squeaky fresh cheese curds,
she teased that cheese back
home in Puerto Rico is still
superior.
The neat thing about the
Ascension church, in Swensons opinion, is that there
are a lot of people who are
related.
The sense of family is
very strong there, Swenson said. Rivera added that
people are related either
by blood or by baptism
(through godparents).

Walking together
Rivera preached during
worship services presided
by Petersen at Covenant on
Saturday evening and Sunday morning. There, Ascension members presented
Covenant with a collage of
photos of their shared ministry, including the photo of
the rosemaling gift Petersen
and Swenson brought to
Puerto Rico last year.
The group briefly met
with Bill White, former
pastor of Bethel Lutheran
Church in Madison, on Sunday evening since he played
matchmaker between the

congregations. Petersen
said that White helps form
possible partnerships with
Lutheran churches in Puerto Rico. So far, seven of the
26 churches there have a
sister parish.
This partnership celebrates accompaniment,
which means walking
together in service in Gods
mission. As a symbol of the
journey, Covenant members were donning a necklace with a sandal pendent,
and the Ascension members
joked they would find a
snow boot.
In fact, the first joint
effort was a Walk for
Water project during the
season of Lent, Petersen
explained. The congregations raised enough funds

follower, Petersen said.


He said this philosophy stems from the Biblical story about the Road to
Emmaus (Luke 24:13-35),
in which two disciples walk
to the village alongside
Jesus days after the crucifixion not realizing who it
was until they broke bread

for a well in South America, Asia and Africa. Each


of the three wells cost about
$2,500.
As sister churches, the
congregations share their histories, ministries and ideas
and pray for each other.
We learn with each
other what it means to be a

at supper.
During the trip the congregations also worked on
their mission statement
together. Rivera pulled out
a journal with the statement (a work in progress),
written in Spanish, and
translated it to: Serving
one another and together
through the grace of God
(through) prayer, visitation,
communication and sharing
of gifts.
To strengthen their bond,
the core team from Covenant will travel to Puerto
Rico in February. They also
intend to use Skype to interact with each other during
services later this year since
worship times will align
despite the time difference.
Swenson also designed
blue T-shirts with an
emblem that combined
Ascensions logo of
Luthers rose with Covenants dove inside. Petersen
said that a member of Covenant left a legacy gift to
the church to develop the
sister parish relationship,
and part of the money went
toward the T-shirts, which
are available for $12.

Spanglers win 4-H horse quilt raffle


The Columbia County 4-H
Horse Project recently held
its annual quilt raffle during
its county fair, and Stoughton residents Scott and Lynn
Spangler won the quilt.
Horse project members
spend considerable time each
year constructing a handmade king-size quilt that is
raffled off at the fair Columbia County Fair. The 4-H
fundraising project raised

over $7,500 with about 9,500


tickets sold to people from
around the Midwest.
The Spangler daughters
used to compete in the Jefferson County horse project,
where they were both Grand
Champions at the State 4-H
Horse Expo in trail back in
the early 2000s with their
two paint horses, and they
also showed on the paint and
pinto horse show circuits.

Alzheimers
poetry project

Scott had purchased $20


worth of tickets back in April
and he and Lynn were excited to receive the quilt.
I support 4-H and other
youth organizations because
they provide kids with great
opportunities and teach kids
responsibility, good work
ethics and great sportsmanship, Scott said.
The Spanglers plan to display the quilt in their home.

Residents of Azura Memory Care


participated in an Alzheimers
Poetry Project engagement session with the projects founder
Gary Glazner on Aug. 5. Glazner,

and staff members to utilize
poetry to tap into abilities, memories and emotions of those
with memory loss.

Girls swimming

Swimmers learn about themselves against McFarland


Anthony Iozzo
Assistant sports editor

The Stoughton High School girls


swimming team traveled to McFarland Tuesday and came into the
meet more worried about learning
about themselves rather than trying
to win against one of the best teams
in the state.
So head coach Katie Liebmann
shifted the lineup around and had
girls try out events they were not
used to swimming.
We just took the opportunity
to not worry what the times are,
Liebmann said. There were a lot of
lessons. The meet for me was to try

and see the big picture of the season. It is not about winning every
meet, it is about seeing what they
can do and working toward some
bigger goals.
One of the Vikings best finishes
in the meet was in the 400-meter
free, where Sophie Pitney swam to
a second-place finish in 5 minutes,
17.4 seconds.
Pitney added a third-place finish
in the 100 free in 1:07.6.
Now she is starting to see what
she can do, and she doesnt even
know what she wants to taper to for
the end of the season, Liebmann
said.
The 400-meter free relay team of

Audrey Killian, Shaylee Kooima,


Thompson and Pitney took second
in 4:46.61.
Sophia Thompson was third in
the 400 free in 5:26.19 and the 50
free in 31.27.
Killian added a third-place finish in the 200-meter freestyle in
2:28.12, while Haley Foss took
third in the 200 IM in 3:07.25.
Abbie Kooima, Ashley Foss, Haley Foss and Pitney finished third in
the 200-meter free relay, and Ashley Foss, Haley Foss, Thompson
and Killian finished third in the
200-meter medley relay in 2:32.01.

the football and when
we can run the ball efficiently, that will open up

said. Kissling was accurate, and we got him some
shorter throws to make
sure he was completing the
passes.
The only other score
for Monroe was a 30-yard
field goal by junior Carter Sawdey in the second

quarter.
I thought our defense
played really well. They
made them earn it, Prahl
said.

offensive options.
When you start out
strong and you develop a
great lead at the beginning
and you let them back in, it
is a lapse of mental either
focus or toughness, head
coach Kelly Sorensen said.
As a whole, we are still
working on some lineups
and figuring out who is
still going to step up.
Stoughtons best set was
the second when it built an
18-8 lead, led by a couple
of kills by junior Rachel
Hedman. The Crusaders did make it interesting, cutting the Vikings
lead to 23-21, but Stoughton was able to score the
final two points and tie the
match at 1-1.
The third set was the
only one that Stoughton
didnt start off with a lead,
but like the first set, the
Vikings outscored Edgewood near the end to make
it close.
When we were passing
well, our offense looked
really great, but we had a
lot of moments when we
werent passing so well
and really only had one
option, Sorensen said.
Edgewood was all over
knowing where we were
going with the ball.
In the final set of the
night, the match went
back-and-forth with kills
by senior Hannah Hobson, junior Maggie Jo
Wirag and Hedman putting
Stoughton up 9-5.
Edgewood came back to
grab a 15-13 lead before
the Vikings went on a 6-1
run. After eight straight
Edgewood points, Stoughton scored three straight to
make it 24-22, but the Crusaders were able to close
out the match.
Hedman finished with
11 kills and 16 digs, while

HATS: Grant would allow

group to create housing

Richard S. Dickman

Serenity Home
The main goal for HATS
right now is turning the
former Serenity House
which has been vacant for
seven years into a place
where families could live,
Peterson said.
The group is looking
for $500,000 to purchase
the building and another
$200,000 to make renovations. The first floor is
about 11,000 square feet
and would be remodeled
to include at least four
three-bedroom units and
two one/two-bedroom
units. The group plans to
seek donations in order to
furnish the units. If HATS
gets the grant, the group
could purchase and renovate the property as soon
as this coming spring.
Families would pay
below the market rate for
rent between $500 and
$800 per month according to documents submitted to Dane County.
The plan also calls for
providing wrap-around
services to families that
live there and in the community. Peterson said the
START group would provide case management
services to the families in
order to help them get their
finances in order, find
employment and receive
mental health counseling.
We see the serenity
place as kind of a stepping
stone, Peterson said. Its
a place where people can
not only have a home, but
can get their life back on
track.
Peterson said the group
would raise funds to hire
an additional case manager
for START, who would
likely have an office in the
Serenity House building.
In the long term, Peterson said the group would

Planning process
What started as an idea
to provide housing has
grown to become a group
of 15-20 people known
as the HATS group.
Volunteer members
include representatives
from Covenant Lutheran
Church, Good Shepherd
by the Lake, the Stoughton United Methodist
church, LakeView Church,
Stoughton United Ministries and St. Anns Catholic Parish. There are also
members from START,
as well as representatives from the school district, city government and
police.
Peterson said the group
was busy learning and
growing a dream when
it learned about the grant
through Dane County in
June.
All of the sudden we
found ourselves going
back to that original
vision, Peterson said.
Dane County Executive Joe Parisi announced
plans to provide $2 million to address affordable
housing needs as part of
a newly created Affordable Housing Development Fund on June 4. The
fund which provides $2
million each year over the
course of four years was
approved last fall by the
county board. Part of that
money, Peterson said, is
dedicated to communities
outside Madison.
After making a presentation to the county,
Peterson said they got
the green light to submit
a summary of their plan,
followed by a full proposal
early in August.
Now were in a pool
with all the others, Peterson said.
And while the grant
through Dane County
would be a tremendous
help to the HATS group,
Peterson it would continue the project even if the
money was not awarded
to them. With all the planning that the group had
done prior to knowing
about the grant, Peterson
said he had no doubt that
plans to address homelessness in Stoughton would
continue.
Itll just be a little
slower, he said. The
fact that we got this far is
pretty amazing. Its like a
David and Goliath thing
were a small little group
that is making an impact
here in Stoughton.

early August and is now


waiting to hear whether it
will receive the funds. A
timeline for reviewing the
proposals hasnt been set,
Peterson said. Five other
groups all from Madison
submitted applications
for the housing grant, as
well.
While the HATS group
waits, the need for lowincome housing still exists
in Stoughton.
Peterson said the community has five or six
homeless families at any
given time. The school
district reported having
up to 58 students who
were homeless in 2013,
Peterson said. In order to
address that need, HATS
wants to provide housing
first to those who need it,
and support those families
with services to get them
back on their feet.

like to see new developments where affordable


housing units are created alongside market-rate
units, but for now, the
group is focused on the
Serenity House plan.

Ryans: Couple loves sharing natural foods with others in family-friendly restaurants
Continued from page 1
Cale told the Hub he and
Caitlin dont think of themselves as foodies, but they
love natural foods and sharing
it with others. That seems to
be their prime motivation in
working long hours in a tough
business.
We love sharing the food
with people, Cale said.
Thats our passion, really.
We love sharing food and if
thats your thing, then this
kind of work can bring a lot
of joy.

Wholesome couple
The Ryans both have a
friendly, quiet air about them.
They enjoy engaging people
not as business owners with
customers, but on a genuine
personal level that makes
them good with employees
and also happens to be a good
way to approach business,
especially in a small town.
I think one thing that
really helped us at first was
we made the pizza place very
open, Cale explained. We
wanted to make it that way
to have a lot of interaction
with people. I think a lot of
people kind of got to know us
personally, not just the food.
And then when they heard we
opened Wendigo, we had a
reputation as open and friendly.
The two met at Whole
Foods several years after Cale
moved here from his native
Colorado in 2001.
Cale had enrolled at the
University of WisconsinMadison, majoring in math
and physics, but his job at the
grocery store drew him away
from academics.
He started at the bottom,
working the counter, and
gradually moved his way up
to running the deli and also
serving as a buyer for the
store.
He worked there more than
six years and said the experience gave him an appreciation for good food and also
lots of knowledge about operating a business that focuses

on natural and organic foods.


Caitlin began working
there in 2008, shortly after
moving from Michigan. She
worked as the stores marketing director, an experience
that proved helpful when the
Ryans opened their own businesses.
It helped when it came
to starting our restaurants,
because I worked with a lot
of local food organizations
like REAP, and so I got to
know people and had some
contacts, she said. Working there also helped us get to
know good food.

Choosing Stoughton
The two were looking to
make a change when they
learned of a vacant space on
North Page Street, and thats
when they started to think
about making a home in
Stoughton.
They had driven through
Stoughton many times and
had once come here for Syttende Mai. They were drawn
to the large number of forward-thinking people who
lived here and felt they could
fill a niche.
Honestly, we just like the
town, Cale said. Theres a
lot more people here than you
think, and you look around
town and see the older buildings and the feel of the place.
Its a small town, but I think
everybody is pretty forward
thinking in how they want to
be socially, and we just really
like the vibe and everyone
weve met here.
Two weeks later, Cale had
quit his job and the couple
opened Famous Yetis Pizza.
I knew that even in the
toughest places, pizza is
always moderately sellable,
he said. We had a little plan
of what we needed to do to
survive and what we need to
focus on. Secondarily, the
pizza just turned out to be
pretty good. I never had a
recipe, but just came up with
one.
About two-and-a-half years
after moving here, they decided to open a second restaurant

File photos

A few months after opening Famous Yetis Pizza, the building was
damaged by a fire. Despite the setback, Cale and Caitlin Ryan have
continued their passion of sharing good food with Stoughton.

with an entirely different


menu.
They loved doing the pizza but felt limited creatively
in what they could do, Cale
explained.
He said the couple had
always talked about doing
something else and had ideas
bouncing around about
what they might do.
It had to be the right
space, he said, and we
always loved the space at the
Pour House. Its such a beautiful building, and when we
heard that they were going
out of business, we were
excited because it was the one
place in town we knew would
work.
Cale said they had been
looking at other communities
to get the right location.
And then the one place in
Stoughton that we really liked
opened up, he said. We
actually randomly met the
building owner, Deb, one day
and got along really well.
They struck a deal and just
dove right in, he added.
They wanted to try to distinguish the Wendigo space
from Yetis because they
were aware that so many
people knew it as the Pour
House. So even though they
didnt have enough money to

fully remodel, we tried cosmetically to make it look different from the Pour House,
Cale said.

Madison to Stoughton
As the main man in the
kitchen, Cale created his own
pizza and sandwich recipes
for Famous Yetis, and he
also collaborated with his
wife in designing the menu
for Wendigo. He thinks the
couple was well suited to go
into the restaurant business
because of their interest in
food and also because of his
crazy work ethic, which
Caitlin said she tries to balance with a more relaxed attitude.
Last year, when Wendigo
opened, the general buzz
around town and among customers was that the Ryans
had brought a Madison vibe
to Stoughton. Its an observation Cale sees as a compliment but doesnt fully accept.
He said people here had
been driving to Madison
for its restaurants and were
ready and happy to support
local restaurants that offered
a comparable dining experience.
The vast majority of
our customers live in town
and have always wanted

The couple is quick to


admit that running the businesses and adjusting to life
with a new baby leaves little
time for much else. They
have lots of ideas about new
things theyd like to try, but
getting to any of it is tough.

Bankers will do more


than save your money.

Evan Wing

Business Banker

The future is now.

something like this, he said.


He added that the two of
them used to enjoy going out
to eat a lot.
We know what weve
always liked and what we
like to make at home, and just
wanted to share that with people, he said. I dont think
Im a great cook, but Im
good at translating what I like
into a plate.
That makes things even
more personal, and as a result,
Cale said, it can be a challenge sometimes not to take a
negative comment personally.
We put so much time into
it and its a complete representation of us, he admitted.
So when they say, oh it has
a Madison vibe, there are
people who hear that comment and it can be a set up for
criticism.

Family identity

In the future

At River Valley Bank, our bankers


also save lives, volunteer in the
community and try to make
this a better place to live.

Two and a half years after opening Famous Yetis, Cale and Caitlin
Ryan opened Wendigo on Main Street.

But business at both restaurants is exceeding expectations, and theyre generally


happy with their new hometown. Caitlins mother moved
to the city as well, which has
helped in a number of ways.
Shes also noticed that with
Boones arrival, more women
with young kids and families
have come to the restaurants,
Wendigo in particular.
I think because I was
pregnant and then had Boone
while we were open, weve
attracted more expecting
mothers and families with
small children, she said.
Were a very kid-friendly
place.
Caitlin foresees a bright
future here, and has recently
noticed a welcome uptick in
activity downtown.
Im looking forward to
raising a family through a
restaurant, she said. Itll be
interesting to see how Boone
responds to that kind of exposure.
Theres always more
things we would like to do,
she added, like making our
own cheese or ice cream. But
its hard to find the time.

When we found
Sienna Crest, it was
as if everything fell
into place. It was
home, it was perfect.
Now when we see
Grandma, we get to
just enjoy her.
