San Gottardo the feast day of the patron saint of Carmine Superiore, has dawned bright, beautiful and dry.
San Gottardo, I should explain, operates in much the same way as St Swithin. They say hereabouts that if it rains on San Gottardo, it will rain for forty days.
Phew!
The mountains & the lake, people & places, children & chickens, frescoes & felines, barbera & books.
