Cnoc Bua, Saturday, 8 July 2000
Cnoc Bua is believed to be the ancient inauguration ground of the MacEochagain Chiefs.


First Stop - near Cnoc Bua. Jim lights a ceremonial cigarette


Who are these people?


Pat wonders what she's doing here


As the group steels itself for the march to the hill, Joe Fox (89) tells them to get a move on.


Vincent, Val and Fred plan some devilment


The two Joes (Fox and Geoghegan) swap stories


Oooops - mind the electric fence


The gathering lands atop Cnoc Bua


I might be wrong, but I think it's a tree


They never told me that the grass would be wet.


From up here I can almost see home


What did you say Mom? "Get down from that tree before you break your neck".


Joe and Fred present the case for Cnoc Bua being the original inauguration site of the MacGeoghegans.


The group winds its way back to the bus, led by Joe Fox
