Diane Tribitt, Minnesotas Cowgirl Poet, is a rancher from Hillman, Minnesota. She also runs a construction crew that erects grain bins across the United States, and has served on the rodeo circuit for many years as an events secretary. Diane brings this wealth of experience to every poem she writes. But the special feelings that her works evoke is also rooted in a deep spirituality and faith that comes from years of hard work in the open air, the special love of family and friends, and devastating losses that raise the question of what life is really all about. Dianes poetry has captivated cowboys and cowgirls alike with its charm and authenticity, and she has been invited to appear at poetry festivals throughout the West. In Trail Mix, Diane also offers us an extensive lexicon of cowboy, Native American, and poker terms, and a large selection of Chuck Wagon recipes. There are plenty of photos of life on the range, and even a hefty selection of Cowboy sayings.
