Loretta Tillett, back at the home place. "I'm here to help anyone with their questions or emails anytime!" When time permits, Loretta loves to come out to camp and enjoy our guests, the cowboy living, riding and cattle activities. "The guest ranch business has been handed down to me by my mother-in-law, someone I truly respect (Abbie Tillett)."

Hip Tillett has been with the TX Ranch his entire life. He is an honest, trustworthy cowboy, as well as quite the character! Hip knows cattle and horses in and out. He has always enjoyed guests and working alongside them. He aims to please and loves to tease, so don't be shy!

Meet Desiree Tillett, Hip and Loretta's daughter. She helps with everything from wrangling horses to starting and finishing colts, to working cattle alongside the guests. She's a good little roper and here to help with any and all activities. She enjoys guests, good conversation and riding with everyone.

Samantha Wright (Sam) serves as the TX Ranch cook. Sam is no stranger to preparing a meal, as she was previously the head chef at Lords of London, in London, England. When Sam has a moment, she's out there with the best of them. She knows the ropes and is a wonderful contribution to the TX Ranch staff.

Britt Tafelski is a hard-working, good-natured, shy-type of cowboy. He helps with riding colts, roping and all our everyday ranching activities. He throughly enjoys meeting, helping and riding with our guests.

Christine Walter has been with us for a number of years, helping with a plethora of tasks on the ranch. She helps with cowboying, wrangling, riding colts (once Desiree and Shane have a handle on them), cattle work, chores, etc. She even helps our cook, Sam. Needless to say she helps us out a lot! She is a wonderful, big-hearted cowgirl and a great asset to our TX Ranch staff.
