Time with the Family

The past two weeks have been a great and relaxing time. When I first arrived in CO I went with my family to a condo in Dillon, CO. We spent about a week up there. And we just relaxed, played games and had a great time together. It has been awhile since we were able to do that.

Since we have been back in the Springs I have been able to catch up on some rest and do some intense training for the up coming basketball season. I have also been able to see some old family friends that I have not seen in awhile.

One of the things that I did to train was something called the Incline. It is on the face of the mountain here and its a little over a mile hike but it goes straight up and you go from about 6000 ft to 9000 ft very quickly. It was rough and tiring but I made to the top and I will be doing it again this week.

I am looking forward to school starting next week. I move in on Monday and start classes on Tuesday. It is going to be fun year. Keep me in your thoughts and prayers. As many of you know College is a very fun and expensive time. I am starting something new this year and I am calling it The Christian Tonkins Book fund. If anyone is willing to donate a few dollars to help me get college books this year it would be greatly appreciated. If you would like to help me send me an email or send your gift to;
Christian Tonkins
Montreat College PO Box 368
Montreat, NC 28757.
I thank you in advance for your help.

Please continue to keep me, my family and my car as well in your prayers.
and Remember You Have A Destiny!!

Something I Wrote in English Class

I come from open roads and vehicle backseats
I come from big green trees and rolling hills
I come from snow capped peaks
I come from hot, black asphalt courts
I come from nice hardwood gyms
I came from Rex and Vickie
I came for a Purpose
I came to Glorify Him
I came for sport
I came to class with my small green pen
I am from rich culture
I am from bike rides and inline skating
I am from a family of athleticism
I am from a family of faith
I am from Tonkins and Cromwell
I am all that He says I am
