‘WE CAN DO IT, JOE. NO ONE’S DONE IT YET, BUT IT WON’T STAY THAT WAY FOREVER.’

‘SOONER OR LATER, SOMEONE IS GOING TO BE THE FIRST. I WANT THAT TO BE US. IF WE DON’T

MOVE QUICKLY – IF WE DON’T GIVE IT EVERYTHING WE’VE GOT – YOU KNOW FOR A FACT…’

‘…THEY WILL.’

MANY YEARS IN THE FUTURE.

I KNOW, CHET. THAT’S WHY I’M HERE.

WHY AREN’T YOU HERE?

I’M TRYING TO GET THERE, JOE. IT’S

JUST VERY…

I DON’T KNOW IF I CAN KEEP THE WORK

GOING WITHOUT YOU HERE. WE’VE ALREADY LOST CHRISTY

AND PHILIP TO THE OTHER SIDE.

LISTEN, JOE, I’LL TRY TO MAKE IT. BUT I HAVE TO GO

NOW…

CHET! YOUR GRANDFATHER

IS HERE.

…COMPLICATED.

…MY MOTHER IS CALLING ME.

HI, GRANDPA.

HMM… I GUESS SO.

I GUESS SO.

YES, MOTHER.

I’VE BEEN CALLING YOU FOR THE LAST TEN

MINUTES, CHET. WERE YOU DAYDREAMING AGAIN, AND

PRETENDING TO BE AN ASTRONAUT?

ANYWAY, YOUR GRANDFATHER IS AT THE DOOR. ARE YOU

READY TO GO?

LISTEN, YOUNG MAN, YOU HAD BETTER TURN YOUR ATTITUDE AROUND. YOUR GRANDFATHER

MADE THESE PLANS A MONTH AGO. I WON’T HAVE YOU RUINING THIS WEEKEND FOR

BOTH OF YOU.

CONSIDER YOURSELF LUCKY. MOST BOYS YOUR

AGE WOULD BE HAPPY TO GO ON A CAMPING TRIP, ESPECIALLY

IF THEIR GRANDFATHER WAS AS FAMOUS AS

YOURS IS.

CHET! ARE YOU READY FOR AN

ADVENTURE?

www.campfire.co.inCAMPFIRETM

ARE YOU EXCITED,

CHET?

HMM… THAT WASN’T VERY CONVINCING. I THOUGHT YOU WERE LOOKING FORWARD TO CAMPING OUT WITH YOUR

OLD GRANDPA?

I SEE. BUT, ONE

WEEKEND WON’T HURT, RIGHT?

WELL… IT WILL. MY FRIENDS AND I STARTED

BUILDING THE FORT, BUT ONE OF THEM DECIDED HE WANTED

TO MAKE HIS OWN. SOME OF MY FRIENDS LEFT MY GROUP

TO HELP HIM.

YES. IF SASCHA GETS HIS FORT UP FIRST,

NO ONE WILL WANT TO HELP US FINISH OURS. HE’LL HAVE THE ONLY

FORT IN THE WOODS, WHEN THE IDEA WAS ACTUALLY

MINE.

YES. IF SASCHA HAS TO WIN THIS RACE, I MIGHT AS

WELL GIVE UP.

SO, IT’S A RACE TO THE

FINISH?

AND YOU WANT TO GET YOUR FORT

BUILT BEFORE THEM?

I WAS – I MEAN, I AM. IT’S JUST THAT MY FRIENDS ARE BUILDING A FORT AND THEY REALLY

NEED MY HELP.

YES... REALLY EXCITED.

www.campfire.co.inCAMPFIRETM

I WAS JUST THINKING ABOUT WHAT YOU JUST

SAID – TWO GROUPS RACING TO GAIN CONTROL OF AN

UNCONTESTED PLACE.

IT REMINDED ME OF THE SPACE

RACE.

NEVER MIND THAT. LET ME TELL YOU ABOUT

THE SPACE RACE. AFTER ALL, I DO KNOW A LITTLE BIT

ABOUT IT.

THE SPACE RACE?

YOU DO KNOW ABOUT THE SPACE

RACE, RIGHT?

WELL… I... KIND OF.

GRANDPA! WHAT’S SO

FUNNY?

HA HA HA!
