Thank-you kind neighbours
Twenty-six degrees in Cannobio at 9:30am this morning as the campaigning for the forthcoming mayoral elections heats up. Bright sunshine. The warm air brings with it the welcome scents of jasmine and honeysuckle. Summer has begun!Big thanks go to Franco, Giuliano and Livio, who spent their Ascension-day holiday in the service of our community, erecting a new handrail and repairing the path on a particularly dangerous part of the mulattiera, which almost everybody uses to reach Carmine. Also to Signor di Marco, the metalworker who made the handrails, and to Fausto, who I believe helped to organise everything. As probably the single person who uses this path the most, I'd like to express my gratitude. Where would Carmine be without guys like you?!

I remember the photos of that walkway. You guys def need a good handrail. How lovely to see the whole community pitch in. :)
Great community spirit :)
Normally a crampon job, is it?
