Busy traffic in Barga

Just a few days ago, the Alpini were out in force at the SS.Madonna della Neve, the Chiesina degli Alpini at Palmente on the road to Loppia just outside Barga. (article here)

The chiesina used to be a sorry ruin but was restored many years ago and since then has been used again by the community.


 

 

But not just the community it would seem – every year at the Festa della Madonna della Neve, the Alpini celebrate and so do thousands upon thousands of ants who trudge across the front of the church.

Each year there seems to be more moving insects and each year the path that they use seems a little deeper and more permanent.
