The Cali Garmo

So last year I had a goal of completing 52 things in 52 weeks. Turned out not to be so perfect as I was only able to complete 31 of them. #fail You can see the results here. This year, I'm altering my goals to be slightly more realistic, but still maintining the 52. Let's see if I can acccomplish all the goals on my list!
