Kari Lynn Dell is a ranch-raised Montana cowgirl who attended her first rodeo at two weeks old and has existed in a state of horse-induced poverty ever since. After ten years in eastern Oregon, she now lives on the Blackfeet Reservation in her parents’ bunkhouse along with her husband, her son, and Max and Spike the Cowdogs. Oh yeah, and the cat. There’s a tipi on her lawn, Glacier National Park on her doorstep, and Canada within spitting distance. Visit her at karilynndell.com.
