The Christmas holiday is winding down now we have the New Year to look forward to; thank goodness we have a week to prepare for the New Year. Relax a bit and have a cookie as you enjoy this Monday’s montage.

Horse drawn sleighs can be seen in the German town of Undeloh. The weather might have caused problems to most commuters, but these rural folks have things under control.
Tennessee Fights the Fjord

Show Off
Santa isn’t the only one that can show off on water skis during the 25th Annual Water Skiing Santa show. This elfin wakeboarder does a pretty good job of his own on the Potomac River.
Lambda What?
The Lambda Centauri Nebula that is what. This is an exceptional shot using the NASA’s WISE telescope. The nebula is about 5,800 years from Earth and home to a new cluster of stars born about 8 million years ago.
