MAINE: my final frontier. These are the voyages of the Scooter Vespa 250 i.e. Super. Its continuing mission - to explore America's most heavily forested state - to roam the vast coastline, numberless lakes, and mighty mountains. To boldly go where no scooter has gone before!

Panda cows are wicked costly critters!

When Mike and I stopped to gaze at a herd of odd-looking cows, we didn't realize that we were looking at such expensive beasts:

    While they are cute I feel sad that someone felt the need to genetically manipulate a cow to make a certain pattern.

    All about the money I guess. Hopefully they will live a happy life because of the way they look and not get eaten. That would be an expensive burger.

    Here I thought they were called Oreo cows. Panda cow sounds very much like an invention of Dr Moreau.
