#Our destinies entwined series#

I have felt sadness that a planned visit from my dear friend from Richmond had to be cancelled. I have felt concern for anyone I may have unwittingly exposed to the virus. I have felt concern for the many people who have COVID without the resources to treat symptoms or preventative measures that ensure a more tolerable experience. My husband has felt boredom and cabin fever. I have had headaches, eye and chest pain, and fatigue.

My husband has had congestion, fever, and nasal drainage. Our symptoms have been very different, not just physically but psychologically.

Within hours I had a second positive, my husband, his first, later confirmed by a second PCR test, and we have settled in for the prescribed time of isolation and healing. This is not the recommended order for these two tests, but we wanted some confirmation. My husband and I went to get an antigen, or rapid test, at the efficient and friendly FAMU test site to confirm the results from the saliva PCR test we had taken the day before at the library. I wondered how my husband could be negative and me positive, and prayed I would not give it to any of these people who matter so much to me.

Their arrival at the Pacific Coast, and the construction of a wooden fortification they named Fort Clatsop signified the end of their westward journey, and yet continues to present day as one of the most unheralded aspects of the expedition.

Over 200 color photographs, a dozen detailed maps, and abundant entries from Lewis and Clark s own journals support this heroic and true story of exploration and discovery.
