Christian picked Lorena up at the airport for a short visit to Tempe. Lorena loves to be there and Christian loves to have her. She is an insanely neurotic neat freak and the apple did not fall far from the tree with Christian. Christian is in the middle of preparation for his comprehensive exams. Lorena is down there to help him out a little, but more than that, just to hang out together, go to the best taco house in phoenix, drink good coffee, and make it through the incredible Phoenix summer heat. Christian will be up to Washington for a week or two in the late summer before he starts what we hope will be his final year (or two) before he graduates.
