Montgomery is the capital and second largest city in Alabama. It was the first capital of the Confederate States of America (later became Richmond, Va) during the Civil War time period.
Physical: 10 pop-ups
Personal: Clean out my closet and give clothes to charity.
Result: My next to last challenge of 2012 saw another act directed towards charity. I have always been sort of a pack rat when it came to clothes. A lot of people observe the "If I haven't worn it in a year" rule and get rid of old clothes annually. I however, observe the "Cram it in your closet, you might need at some future point in your life" rule. That being said, I had quite a few clothes that I could give to charity. I went through old sweaters, shirts, ties, and suits and piled them on my bed. There were many that I hadn't worn in a long time, but there were others that I probably would have worn if they hadn't been buried under the ones I wouldn't. Needless to say, I filled a large trash bag and made ample room on the hanging pole. I took the clothes to a resale shop that gives the majority of it's profits to helping the victims of domestic violence. It felt good to clean out my closet, but it felt even better to donate them to a cause.
