The trees in my earlier pic, I believe are Cherry. Those blooms are gone now.
Yes I did mean " actual beehive." I'm on my second year of urban bee keeping. It's a fun little hobby. Plus the payout late in July is worth all the work caring for the bees in the cold winter months.
Had I been thinking. I guess that the yearly engine swap from the 1679 to 2180 hot street engine would count for yearly maintenance. That's going to happen in the next couple weeks.

Of course! Summer vipers are deadlier though.

Does beer count as groceries? I have most my groceries delivered since Covid.

My team of millennial unpaid interns do all my shopping for me, and deliver to my yacht. Do I have to pay them gas money if they use my car and fill it up?

Why was I expecting this?  So - no, barley sandwiches (even if they ARE your breakfast staple) do not qualify!
Sorry!

I made it!
Next up:
YVWNT some downtown art like a graffitied bridge or wall mural on a building.
Bonus points if protest or COVID related.

Ha! You beat me to it 
Does YVWNT some downtown art like a graffitied bridge or wall mural on a building have to be a currently owned VW, or can one use a pic from a couple years ago?

No. The point is to get you out driving your VW.
You can share if you like but it doesn’t count towards the challenge.

Does a Vanagon spray painted with “ I’m sad I’ve been Subarued” count?

No Abscate, I think he’s looking for pictures similar to the challenge I completed last year. Ugh.

NEXT UP: Your VW at a recent riot/“protest” site. (Graffiti, boarded up windows/businesses, burned out shells of buildings or cars.)
Was hoping someone else would nail this challenge instead of Xaties silly 74 Franken bug. Took a little drive around the neighborhood today just for this challenge. Sadly I’m reminded of the folks that can’t comprehend the “Golden Rule”

Maybe I’ll find some happy graffiti to complete this challenge. If my iPhone camera lets me
