Local author Gail Grycel will present a slideshow and book launch reading of her new travel memoir, Dancing Unabashedly to Mariachi Music, at the Westminster West Public Library on Wednesday, October 16th at 7 pm.
 
Exhausted from thirty years of running a business, layers of self-doubt, and failed online dating attempts, Gail Grycel embarked on a year of travel from New England to Hawaii and back. Armed with backpacking gear and two pairs of dancing shoes, she boarded a Greyhound bus in September of 2014, and set out to see what else life offered.
 
Through the book, Gail invites the reader to experience the landscapes and cultures of the United States, exploring oddities like the Cow Thieves and Outlaws Reunion, the Mummified Barbie Dolls, and the Biker Bar Identity Crisis. The reader will encounter people like Coyote Joe, the Nomadic Llama Guru, TEA Man, and the Denver Seducer. While integrating humor, adventure, and self-reflection, the reader can walk the labyrinth of possible lives with Gail, and find out what changes evolve.
