      The Path

      In July 2020, the author and her husband, John, took a long driving trip out west. John had been sick with COVID and had pneumonia and his oxygen saturation levels fell below 70 percent. After six days in the hospital, John was fine, except for one long-haul symptom: he claimed the dust in their basement prevented him from cleaning out the basement again. John's illness had put a lot of things in perspective, and this long driving trip was a time to talk about it. Being a congressional political spouse is a whole thing and it's often a raw deal.

      The most important details in this text are that the author almost lost her husband, John, in 2020 due to the COVID pandemic. This was a year when a disease so utterly horrible came out of nowhere and took many people's lives, and the author almost lost her husband in a hospital. The author's story is an example of how a political spouse's story can get exaggerated and larger than life over time. The author's story is about how the author almost lost her husband, John, in 2020 due to the pandemic. John and the author embarked on a ten-day trip to the West Coast in July 2020, when both the Midwest and Western states were experiencing a brief reprieve from the spread of the virus.

      The murder of George Floyd had ripped apart Minnesota and the nation, and the prosecution of former Minneapolis police officer Derek Chauvin for the murder was in the hands of Minnesota Attorney General Keith Ellison. The author knew that when they returned from the trip they needed to go full-on back to their work in the Senate and do everything they could to help the Biden campaign win in November. The narrator and their husband, John, drove to the Black Hills in July, coincided with Donald Trump's pre-Fourth of July rally in front of Mount Rushmore. As they drove past ranches and farms and eastern South Dakota flatland, the narrator listened to a radio station dissecting the appropriateness of the Trump administration's use of Mount Rushmore for the fireworks. As they filled up the car at a gas station, the narrator realized they were sharing the gas pumps and hot asphalt parking lot with legions of eager Trump supporters on their way to the rally.

      The narrator realized that the election results were in and everything was okay. The U.S. Capitol insurrection, Donald Trump's impeachment, and Native American protesters outside of Mount Rushmore were the least of Donald Trump's worries that summer. After spending the night in Spearfish Canyon, South Dakota, the author drove west to the Tetons, a park of spiritual renewal for their family. They once bicycled 1,100 miles in ten days in 1981, but never saw a rattlesnake. Now, nearly thirty years later, the author is back, tracing the old bike route by car to Jackson, Wyoming, at the foot of the Teton mountains.

      The narrator and their husband John were on a camping trip in Wyoming during the early days of the pandemic. They ate COVID-era boxed take-out food with plastic forks in their hotel room, roamed the streets, and visited landmarks such as the Silver Spur Cafe, the Snake River, the Wagon Wheel hotel, the Chapel of the Transfiguration, Jackson Lake Lodge, herds of buffalo, the occasional bear, and a moose. During the day, John and
