Thank you for the quick response Mr Burton.  I was hoping to have
picture with men pulling the parade barge, but the pictures you sent
would do.  Thanks.

hi libbygirl,
thanks for getting back to me. I'm glad the pictures i found for you
were suitable. Sorry i wasn't able to find exactly what you were
after.  I did perform a few searches on some Russian sites, but
readily available pictures of this event were not found.  In the end,
i resorted to used "Google images" ( http://images.google.com ), and
came up with the pictures i supplied earlier.

Thanks for the quick response.  The picture you sent does illustrate
the burlaki or barge-hauling activity that I will be writing about.
