Hi Keith,
Perhaps you do not want to go with calendar weeks:
365/7 = 52.14
as there are not an even number of weeks in a year, you may want to
plot by week from your initial observation. As you are using as.Date,
you could simply calculate weeks as:
data$Week<-1+as.numeric(data$Date - data$Date[1])%/%7
