The new year means reflecting on the past year and lots of resolutions for the next. Here are Grand Junction's highlights of 2019 and resolutions for 2020.

Time is a funny thing, we blinked and it seemed like a whole year just flew by. But when we look back on our memories from 2019, we can see that we've seen and accomplished a lot. We asked you what your highlights of 2019 were and what your resolutions are for 2020 because looking back and looking forward are both important.

First, let's appreciate the past and all of the great things that happened in 2019.
