This the third in a series of interviews with Gail about the cultural practices of the Huichol Indians of Mexico. Here she describes how her journeys to the Huichol people in Mexico intersected with her marriage, and how she eventually brought her husband with her to the peyote ritual ceremony. She movingly describes the close, family relationships she developed with individual Huichols. She also discusses an instance in which a Huichol guest at her home in California received a healing treatment from a Mongolian shaman.
