NEW NEIGHBORHOOD
....WE'D JUST BUILT A FIRE
FOR A MARSHMALLOW ROAST
WHEN A UFO LANDED NEAR BY..................................... 


                                               

 
..............THE HATCH-DOOR FLEW OPEN!
WE ALL GASPED IN FEAR.
THEN OUT STEPS THIS REAL NERVOUS GUY.

I ASKED HIM TO JOIN US,
AS EVERYONE STARED.
HE DIDN'T QUITE KNOW WHAT TO DO.

I SAID, "DONT' BE AFRAID!
IT'S JUST OTHER CAMPERS,
PROBABLY MORE FRIGHTENED THAN YOU."

IT'S HARD TO LEAVE ONE PLACE
AND MOVE TO ANOTHER.
I TOLD HIM THAT WE UNDERSTOOD.

AND HE KNEW HE COULD STAY,
WHEN HE HEARD US ALL SAY,
"WELCOME TO
OUR NEIGHBORHOOD!"
