Personal images by Jack & Barbara Caldwell

Please allow us to introduce ourselves.

Jack Caldwell is a native of the great state of Louisiana; that is, he's a Cajun. He's lived there almost his entire life, including college (Centenary College in Shreveport; Tulane in New Orleans). He is a professional economic developer by trade, but a writer/cook who loves to travel and play golf by avocation.

Barbara Caldwell was born in Florida to parents from Wisconsin. She grew up in the Keys and the Orlando area. A graduate of Vanderbilt University, she's lived in Tennessee, California and Louisiana. She has designed jewelry, traveled all over the world, and teaches others about our Catholic faith.

Between the two of us we have three wonderful sons: Jack Hewitt, Doug Caldwell, and Sean Hewitt.

Hurricane Katrina drove us out of Louisiana to the wonders of the Dairy State, Wisconsin. We now reside near West Bend, WI, about forty miles northwest of Milwaukee, and 1,000 north of New Orleans.

However, you can take the Cajuns out of Louisiana, but you can't take the Louisiana out of the Cajuns. As we make our home here, it will be our pleasure to bring a bit of our joie de vivre to this beautiful county of the Kettle Moraine. So let's fire up the gumbo pot to go along with that brat fry, cher!
