On this day in 1991, Nirvana's album "Nevermind" was released. Classic!

Old Friends Together Again

Was in the Bricklieve Mountains with the Family a short time ago to visit the ancient tombs of Carrowkeel and met this pair of rare old gents. They told us the story that they had been playmates at school, 60 years ago and had just recently established contact with each other again. We interrupted their walk in this wonderful, sacred and tranquil space but they were very happy to chat and share their story with us. I'm at a loss to remember their names but I was touched by the message that true friendship transcends the ages. I stole this shot as they supported each other on their decent.
