Yet more Bougainvillea trimming...

Usually end up with a pile of larger branches at the end of each trimming session...
Would make good fire wood.


After about 1.5 hours of trimming...


Many of the vines/branches went through the lattice work so it's difficult to trim and to get it free...



The bougainvillea is looking pretty thin...

Had to stop here.
Ran out of green bin space...

Bayern Munich (Munchen) vs. Dortmund

They showed a Bundesliga game on over the air TV (ABC, channel 7 on Saturday morning).
It was broadcast live (night time in Germany).
It was nice to see a different league (usually watch English Premier League on NBC, channel 4, or Telemundo, channel 52, via Over the Air).

These two guys were pretty impressive in the game.

It was a good game.  Dortmund jumped out to a 2-0 lead within the first 10 minutes.  But, over the next 80, Bayern came back to score 4...

 

More Bougainvillea Trimming...



Still need to do a lot more trimming to make enough space...

Replacing the car cover on the 914...

The cover for the 914 was on it's last legs.
I had a replacement ready.
The corrosion at the base of the windshield seems to have progressed some...



The LR tire is destroyed.
It's a Pirelli.
The RR tire is a Michelin & the two fronts are Yokohama.
I'd like to replace the flat tire just so that the car will sit right.
I guess it doesn't make any difference now...


I didn't remember that the car still had it's factory jack/wrench...


Tires are 165 SR 15s...
This is the RR Michelin XZX.

Put the new cover on an hour before it started raining.
