It was a beautiful day in Jellystone Township, located a mile away from Jellystone Park. And why not? At that very moment, there was some construction work underway.

Specifically, on a new mall that was not only forest-themed, but energy efficient.

"Dis mall is gonna be a real boon-type aid to tourism, Augie-my-boy," said "Diamond" Doggie Daddy as he was supervising the construction progress.

"I can hardly wait, dear-old-dad," commented Augie Doggie, sitting nearby.

As construction was continuing, the workers suddenly heard something strange, prompting them to grind to a halt.

"What's goin' on over there?" asked Doggie Daddy, raising a brow.

"Not sure," replied the foreman. "But we're going over to take a look."

So both dogs watched as the foreman and a few other workers went to check. Then suddenly, they heard a loud roar as a huge bear came out of the shadows; it had blood-red eyes, claws like steak knives, and some sort of paw-shaped marking on its upper chest.

It threw its head back and let out a horrible roar, slashing through the equipment and scaring off the workers.

"What're we gonna do, dear-ol-dad?" asked Augie as he watched the bear run off.

"The only thing we CAN do, son-o-mine," responded Doggie Daddy as he took out his cellphone. "Contact some mystery solving types to help figure this caper out!"

AUTHOR'S NOTES:

- Corn Pone is a character who only appeared in the 1964 movie "Hey There, It's Yogi Bear!" voiced by the late Hal Smith.

- Growler is a character from the 1988 series The New Yogi Bear Show, who was voiced by the late Allan Melvin, aka Magilla Gorilla!

- Jellystone Township, and its accompanying mall are from the maligned 1991 series Yo Yogi. Yes, I like that series too. So sue me, why don't ya?

- The Demon Bear is modeled somewhat on the Scarebear from the same episode of Scooby-Doo! Mystery Incorporated.

It was a bright, sunny afternoon, and the Mystery RV was pulling into Jellystone Township after getting a very important call.

"Well, this is the place," Fred said, recalling his childhood summertime experiences. "Good ol' Jellystone!"

"Guess this place holds a lot of memories for you, eh, Fred?" asked Velma.

"You bet it does!" Fred beamed. "I had so many great summer camping trips here!"

"Camping? Wow!" commented Scrappy. "Hey, Uncle Scooby, could we go camping?"

"Hmm...maybe," said Scooby.

"That's good enough for me!" Scrappy said excitedly.

"Hold on, Freddy," said Daphne as she pulled her head in through the window. "Looks like we've got a roadblock."

"What is it?" Velma asked.

"You wouldn't believe me if I told you," responded Daphne.

"Try me." Velma suggested.

Daphne pulled her over to the window, and outside was a certain smarter-than-average bear, standing before a sign labeled "Health Inspector".

"...whatever I was expecting, it certainly wasn't THAT," responded Velma. "Still, it's actually more hilarious than it is unbelievable."

"Pardon me, folks, but you're gonna have to stop and pre-sent any edible-type goodies you might be carrying," said the bear in an Art Carney-esque voice.

Shaggy pulled his head in. "Like, it couldn't hurt to share with him!" he said.

"Reah!" nodded Scooby as he checked the inventory. "Rhaddo re rot to spare?"

"An extra submarine sandwich, two bags of tortilla chips, some bean dip, and a box of chocolate chip cookies we haven't touched yet," responded Scrappy.

"I think we can spare the cookies!" Shaggy replied. "Plus the chips and the dip."

"Rokay then!" Scooby nodded as he gathered them up, then Shaggy passed them to the "health inspector" outside.

"Thanks a bunch for a succulent lunch!" the bear grinned as he accepted the treats.

"HEY!" called an authoritative-sounding voice.

"Now pardon me, while I take a lunch break!" the bear said as he quickly took off into the woods.

Fred couldn't help but chuckle. "OK, he definitely seems familiar!" he commented.

Shortly afterwards, a dark-haired man in a ranger uniform came over to them. "Afternoon, kids, and welcome to Jellystone Park," he greeted. "I'm Ranger Smith...and I see you just met Yogi."

"More like I met him again," Fred responded. "Back when I came here with my dad, I had a few run-ins with a certain food-chasing cub. I trapped him a few times, but it was all in good fun."

"Wait a minute...Freddy Jones?" asked Ranger Smith. "Well! As I live and breathe! It's great to see you again after so long! I think I was a deputy ranger back then..."

"Yeah, dad and I got busy and haven't had a chance for coming back until now," Fred explained.

"Well, you picked a heck of a time to come back," replied Ranger Smith. "We've been receiving reports of a monstrous bear causing trouble. It's been scaring off the construction workers nearby, so for the time being, a bear curfew has been enforced."

"Actually, that's why I'm back, and with friends," Fred pointed out. "We're Mystery Incorporated and we were called to help solve this mystery."

"Oh! That would explain who Doggie Daddy was calling," said Ranger Smith. "Well, as soon as you park, I'll get you filled in."

"Sure thing, Ranger Smith." Fred replied with a smile.

And so, the gang got the Mystery RV parked, and after properly prepping themselves for a nature walk, disembarked from the RV and went off to find Doggie Daddy in order to find further info.

Shortly, they met him and Augie in a nearby office.

"I'm awful glad you kids got here," said Doggie Daddy.

"How can we help?" Fred asked.

"You could start checking the park and asking around," said Augie. "After all, Jellystone has a thriving bear community!"

"We just met one on the way in." Daphne mentioned.

"Oh, you mean Yogi, yeah?" asked Augie. "Still, couldn't hurt to go and check."

"I have heard that there were some bears that weren't very nice, so I think checking would be a good start," Fred mentioned.

So, the gang headed out into the park and went to find any of the bears; Scooby and Scrappy put their sniffers to the ground and started searching.

As they did, they started picking up a scent. Scooby immediately started pointing and barking loudly to alert the others.

"You caught a smell?" asked Fred. "Then lead the way!"

So Scooby led them through the woods, while they were being watched from the trees. Eventually, he led them towards a few other bears.

"Like, that's a lot of bears," Shaggy pointed out.

"Well, Augie did say the place had a thriving bear community," responded Fred.

"So...should we go ask them?" asked Velma.

"It would be a good start," Scrappy suggested before noticing a familiar face. "Hey, there's the "health inspector" from earlier!"

As they glanced over, they saw Yogi, settled in a hammock with a picnic basket.

"Yep, that's Yogi for ya." Fred confirmed.

"If you're not sure, you could go over and wake him up," said a voice. "But I'd bring a cookie or something. He's a little irritable when his nap gets interrupted."

They all looked to see who said that before looking down to see a small bear in a bow tie.

"Hiya," he greeted casually.

"Hey," Fred replied. "I'm Fred and these are my friends Velma, Daphne, Shaggy, Scooby, and Scrappy."

"Well, I'm Boo-Boo," said the smaller bear. "I see you guys've been trying to find out about that devil bear, yeah?"

"We were asked by Doggie Daddy to investigate," Velma confirmed.

"If that's it, then Yogi and I want in," said Boo-Boo.

"We do need the help," Daphne pointed out.

"Great, I'll just wake Yogi up," said Boo-Boo as he went over with a sandwich and waved it under Yogi's nose.

Within seconds, the bear was up and about. "Is that honey mustard I smell?" he asked. "Aw, little buddy, ya know me so well!"

"Time to rise and shine, Yogi," Boo-Boo advised. "These kids are here to solve that rampaging bear mystery."

"Izzat so? Well, then count me in!" Yogi declared as he sprang to his feet. "A fella like that gives us good basket-lovin' bears a bad name!"

"Then, like, welcome to the team." Shaggy said happily.

"Glad to be onboard!" Yogi said as he shook hands. "And by the way, thanks for the eats!"

He then did a few stretches. "Oh-kay, let's get to searchin' for clues!" Yogi exclaimed.

"Some of us will go to search for clues at the site while the rest will stay here and check the bears." Fred advised.

"Al-righty then!" Yogi said as he went with Fred, Velma and Scrappy, while Boo-Boo went with Daphne, Shaggy, and Scooby.

The first group went to the site to search for clues while the second group went around to ask the other bears about the situation.

"I think I know who we could ask," said Boo-Boo as he led the others into a nearby cave.

"Why do I get the feeling that we should be running away?" Shaggy asked nervously.

"Reflex?" Daphne replied.

"I honestly can't blame him," Boo-Boo admitted. "Not everyone likes going into caves."

As they headed in, they were met by a tall, lanky-looking bear.

"Hi there, Boo-Boo," he greeted. "If'n I knew you was bringin' company, I'd have spruced the place up some!"

"They're here about what happened at the new mall site." Boo-Boo replied.

"Is that right?" Corn Pone asked. "Well, it was a real scary sight. Personally, I'm just glad Cindy wasn't here to see it."

"Rindy?" Scooby asked.

"A very nice lady bear that usually lives here, but is currently visiting a relative," Boo-Boo explained.

"Yep," nodded Corn Pone. "She n' Yogi are sweethearts, but...well, the big guy's afraid of takin' the next step. But y'all didn't hear it from me."

"All I heard was an echo." Daphne replied.

"Good, then," replied Corn Pone. "...personally, two others I'd ask are Growler and Ranger Jones. But you'd have better luck asking Ranger Jones. Growler ain't what you'd call 'sociable'."

"Don't we all know it," Boo-Boo agreed.

"Now, you'd best get movin', alright?" urged Corn Pone. "That daylight is burnin'!"

"Agreed," Boo-Boo replied. "Thanks, Corn Pone."

"Tweren't nuthin'!" Corn Pone said as the gang left his cave.

But no sooner had they set foot outside were they set upon by the Demon Bear!

"Zoinks! It's that ghoulish grizzly!" Shaggy shrieked.

"This is what it's like for you?" Daphne asked as they took off running.

"To put it simply...YES!" Shaggy replied.

"I know a shortcut to a safe spot!" Boo-Boo said while running ahead. "Follow me!"

The gang quickly ran behind him, while the Demon Bear kept on coming after them. Soon, Boo-Boo led them through a small opening that the Demon Bear couldn't get through.

As the opening was shut behind them, the Demon Bear pawed and snarled ferociously at the doorway, before it gave up and lumbered off.

"Phew, rhat ras rose," Scooby said in relief.

"Let's just hope the others are doing better than we are," commented Daphne.

MEANWHILE...

The other members of the group were looking around the construction site and had found a couple of clues. Specifically, some hair from the Demon Bear and a footprint that was different from an ordinary bear footprint.

"Okay, this is definitely NOT a regular bear's print," observed Fred as Velma took pictures and collected the hair sample.

"Indeed it isn't." Velma agreed.

"Alright, did it attack anywhere else so we can search there?" Scrappy asked.

Suddenly, Fred and Velma's phones rang; Velma picked hers up. "Hello?" she responded.

"Had a run-in with the monster." Daphne revealed. "Now I know what Shaggy and Scooby put up with."

"We found some clues," replied Velma. "We gonna regroup?"

"I'd say we should." Daphne advised.

"Alright, we'll meet at the RV," said Fred. "See you in several?"

"Yup," Daphne replied before hanging up.

So both groups headed for the RV.

Once they arrived, Yogi headed to the fridge and began helping himself to its contents.

"I hope you don't mind if I grab a quick bite," he said, while piling food on a lunch tray. "I mean, after all, this Sherlock-Holmes stuff is hungry work! I need lots of brain food to keep the synapses firin'!"

"Dude, you are speakin' my language!" agreed Shaggy as he joined in on eating.

"Ruh-huh!" Scooby agreed as he did the same.

"At this rate, we're gonna need to stock up again," mused Scrappy as he watched them stuffing their faces.

As they did, there suddenly came a knock on the door. THUMP-THUMP-THUMP!

"Who is it?" asked Fred.

"Ranger Jones," responded a gruff voice. "Here to deliver a warning."

As Fred opened the door, he saw that standing in the entrance was a bulldog-faced man dressed in a ranger's uniform.

[The design for Ranger Jones is based on the featured character from the Yogi Bear short Iron Hand Jones.]

Yogi and Boo-Boo ran and hid inside the spare van, while the others spoke with Ranger Jones.

"Can we help you?" Fred asked.

"As a matter of fact, you can," responded Jones briskly. "No doubt you've heard about the recent reports of this 'Demon Bear' wreaking havoc in the park."

"Actually, we're the mystery solvers that are looking into it," Velma revealed.

"I see," Jones muttered. "Personally, I have reason to suspect that Yogi character. Always up to some sort of trouble...runs in the blood, really."

"I doubt it," Daphne pointed out.

"Besides, what's that supposed to mean?" asked Velma.

"It means, young lady, that the devil bear was his grandfather!" Ranger Jones stated.

To say everyone was shocked was an understatement—in fact, Yogi was pretty shocked too.

"It was?" Fred asked. "What's the story about it?"

"It was a long time ago, back when the park was still young," Jones responded. "Iron Paw, as they called him, was violent, beastly, and flew into a rage at a moment's notice. He was a danger to the visitors and the animals."

"Ouch, that's bad." Velma said in shock before adding. "But logically what happened with one bear doesn't always happen with the next generation."

"One can't know for sure. It took five rangers to put Iron Paw down," said Ranger Jones. "And for that, his grandcub will be under MICROSCOPE watch! Good day to you, and stay alert."

After Ranger Jones was gone, Boo-Boo came out of hiding first. "Mr. Jones has always had an ax to grind with Yogi." he mentioned.

"He never DID like me," said Yogi as he came out next. "But to think—ol' Gramps, a bonafide terror! No wonder Dad never mentioned him..."

"Hmm, maybe we should consider Ranger Jones as a suspect." Velma suggested.

"Most likely," Fred replied. "His attitude towards Yogi could be a major motive."

"Plus you two were with Yogi when the Demon Bear attacked us, so we definitely know that it's not Yogi," Daphne pointed out.

"Exact-ick-aly!" Yogi nodded, biting through a sandwich.

"Plus I still need to examine this fur I found," Velma admitted as she held up the fur she found.

"Oh, yeah! We definitely need that," nodded Scrappy.

"And I think we should check out that mean bear that Corn Pone told us about." Daphne suggested.

"Like, are you sure?" asked Shaggy. "He also said that Growler wasn't too sociable!"

"Reah!" Scooby agreed.

"That's why we're going to watch him through binoculars and a listening device." Scrappy pointed out. "We can keep our distance and watch him."

Shaggy and Scooby glanced at each other, then relented.

"Well...okay, if you say so," responded Shaggy.

"Don't worry, I know the safe spots," Boo-Boo assured them.

So, the gang headed out to check on Growler, who was stalking through a clearing in search of food. Of course, they were observing from several feet away and using their equipment to observe him.

However, it was clear that even though Growler was mean and surly, he didn't seem anything like the type to put on a disguise and go terrorizing campers or workmen.

"No doubt about it, he's in the clear," Daphne declared.

"At least that's one less suspect." Boo-Boo said with relief.

"Still, people will be even more on edge about bears around here until we get this case solved," noted Fred. "Here's hoping that we've made some progress in finding the culprit."

"Let's go check with Velma," Shaggy suggested.

"Yeah, she probably has something by now!" Scrappy agreed.

So, they headed back to the RV, where Velma had finished her analysis.

"Good news is, the fur is fake," she explained. "The better news is, the bear footprint had the indentations of a shoe being worn inside of it. So it's definitely a human in a suit."

"Nice one, Velma!" Fred replied. "This definitely whittles down our suspect list. But who'd go to all this trouble?"

"We'll have to figure it out later." Daphne pointed out. "The Demon Bear is heading this way!"

"ZOINKS!" Shaggy gulped. "And us, without any trap!"

"No time!" called Fred as he opened the van, and hopped inside. "We gotta move it! Escape now, trap later!"

The others didn't hesitate as they climbed inside the RV and shut the door, then they opened the back hatch of the RV, rolled out, and drove off to get away from the incoming Demon Bear. He was fast, but he couldn't catch the van.

He kept up with them for a while as he ran after them, even switching to four-wheel drive, but soon he got tired and walked off.

Despite being safe now, the gang kept on going.

"So what's the plan now?" asked Daphne.

"We're going to see Doggie Daddy," responded Fred. "We may as well give him a status update."

SHORTLY...

After parking the van, the gang climbed out and headed into Doggie Daddy's office, which was in the still-being-built Jellystone Mall.

"Well, we've narrowed down our list of suspects," said Fred.

"And we have the proof to confirm that the Devil Bear isn't a real bear," Velma added.

"So far, dis is very good what I'm hearin'!" nodded Doggie Daddy.

"Now we just need to snap him up in a trap!" said Scrappy. "Or at least figure out what he's after, that way we can lure him in."

"I think I have an idea of what the Demon Bear is after, but we need to catch him first," Velma advised.

"Agreed." Fred replied.

"Oh, boy!" Scrappy exclaimed. "Sounds like a trap coming on!"

"And every trap needs bait!" Fred replied.

"Count us out, man!" Shaggy exclaimed, putting his hands up. "Even if it's not a REAL bear, that doesn't make him any less scary!"

Suddenly they heard Ranger Jones come a-knocking. THUMP-THUMP-THUMP! "Open up, I'm taking Yogi in!" he called from outside of Doggie Daddy's trailer. "I know he's in there, so hand him over!"

"Then again, he's way scarier!" gulped Shaggy.

"Just a minute, Mister Ranger-man-sir!" said Augie, answering the door. "How do you even know Yogi is the culprit?"

"Yeah! He was with us the whole time!" added Daphne. "So how could it be him?"

"Who else could it be?!" Ranger Jones asked. "That bear is nothing but trouble, and I'm taking him in!"

"I'll have a little chat-like talk with him," Doggie Daddy whispered. "Wait for my signal, and you kids can take off!"

"Got it," nodded Fred.

"Now, if you will excuse me, Ranger Jones, let us step outside," Doggie Daddy told the other ranger as he led him outside and closed the door.

KLUNK!
THUNK!
WHAMBO!

"Alright, you crazy kids, get movin'!" Doggie Daddy called from outside. As the gang came out, they saw that Doggie Daddy was holding a porta-john shut.

"What is the meaning of this?!" bellowed Ranger Jones from inside. "I demand you let me out at once!"

"You kids get a move on!" Doggie Daddy called. "I'll keep this putz busy!"

"Thanks!" Fred called out.

"I owe you one, Doggie Daddy!" Yogi said as he went with the gang.

"Think nuthin' of it, Yogi-ol'-pal!" called Doggie Daddy. "I owe you a lunch!"

And so, the gang went off into the woods to discuss their next course of action.

"OK, I think I've found something important while checking out the park's geography, specifically what lies beneath," expounded Velma. "And I think Yogi may know as well."

"Know what?" inquired Yogi.

"We'll get to that later." Fred assured him. "Right now we need to focus on setting a trap."

"Yogi and I can help," Boo-Boo offered. "We've built a bunch of contraptions for snatching picnic baskets, so maybe they'll come in handy."

"Then it's our best bet!" Fred responded. "So let's go for it."

And with that, they got to work. As they did, Boo-Boo and Yogi managed to assemble some traps that had even Fred impressed.

"...wow, these are pretty good!" remarked Fred.

"Aw, thanks!" Yogi beamed. "After all, I am smarter than the average bear!"

"Now for the bait." Velma declared.

"I'll handle this," Scrappy declared as he was holding a map. "Someone wants this map to find oil, is what Velma discovered, so I'll lure them out."

"You sure you wanna do this?" Daphne asked.

Scrappy gave a firm nod. "As sure as can be!" he replied. "Wouldn't be much good of a bodyguard if I weren't willing to take risks to protect!"

"Be rafe," Scooby advised his nephew.

Scrappy smiled. "Aren't I always?" he asked before he headed out the door and into the woods, map in hand.

The others got ready with the trap, while Scrappy went further out into the forest. "Boy, oh, boy, I can't wait to find that oil site!" he remarked as he tromped through the woods. "After all, I can use my sniffer to ferret it out...then I get to dig it up myself!"

Of course, it wasn't too long after he said that when the Demon Bear came out of the woods and ran after Scrappy.

"Great! Here he comes!" Scrappy remarked as he started running, with the map in his teeth.

Despite being small, Scrappy was pretty fast, managing to stay ahead of the Demon Bear, leading him on a chase through the trees and and brush.

"Catch me if ya can!" he called from between his teeth.

And I know ya can't! he smirked to himself while he kept moving at a light sprint.

The Demon Bear roared, and kept trying to catch up, little realizing that they were almost at the location of the trap.

"C'mon, now or never!" Scrappy grunted, as he darted towards the area. As soon as he was in the clear, the gang sprung the trap. The Demon Bear was whacked on the butt with a branch that slung him onto a trampoline that made him bounce onto a wall before sprawling into a net, which was hoisted up into the air.

"And that's how ya trap a bad guy!" Scrappy exclaimed as he brushed his paws off.

"I'm definitely taking notes of this trap for later use," Fred declared. "It's effective on things like Demon Bears...and maybe even gorillas!"

"Let's unmask this bad bruin first!" Yogi said as he cracked his knuckles. "This fella's been draggin' my good name through the mud all day, and I couldn't be madder!"

"Agreed." Fred nodded.

At that time, Ranger Smith arrived with Augie Doggie and Doggie Daddy.

"Has anyone seen Ranger Jones?" Ranger Smith asked.

"Wouldn't you know it—he escaped my porta-john by tippin' it ovah!" Doggie Daddy exclaimed.

"And I think I know where he escaped to," mused Velma as she reached up and pulled the Demon Bear's mask off.

Underneath was the scowling mug of...

"Ranger Jones!" everyone exclaimed.

"I knew there was something I didn't like about that fella!" remarked Yogi.

"But why, Jones?" Ranger Smith asked. "Why?"

"It's simple, really," responded Velma. "And it has to do with oil."

"Hey, I know about dat survey," Doggie Daddy admitted. "They discovered a possible oil deposit in Jellystone, but it's only about a gallon's worth, so dey scrapped it."

"But Ranger Jones found it a week ago, and decided to make sure he was the only one who knew," Boo-Boo continued.

"So he trussed himself up as that lousy, misbe-gotten excuse for a bear to scare folks away," Yogi added. "And with everyone else gone, he could harvest the oil for himself, even if it was only a gallon! She-esh!"

"Not to mention, he'd be able to get rid of you too, Yogi," Boo-boo pointed out. "By framing you for the attacks."

"Shame! Shame!" Yogi remarked. "And another 'shaaame', for underestimatin' the brainpower of these good park-goin' folks!"

"And I would've gotten away with it, if it wasn't for those snoopy kids and their dogs!" Ranger Jones grumbled.

"Not to mention, this smarter-than-average bear!" Yogi added. "And his dee-minyative bear-type buddy!"

"Now to start the legal process," Doggie Daddy declared. "My lawyers are going to have a massive field day with you."

"Any chance it's, like, Walter Strider, Attorney at Law and Private Investigator?" Shaggy asked.

"You'd better believe it!" Doggie Daddy admitted. "You know him?"

"We've definitely met," Shaggy confirmed with a smile.

"But first...people like you give park rangers a terrible name," said Ranger Smith as he approached Ranger Jones. "And for that, I hereby strip you of your title."

And he confiscated his name tag, stars, and hat.

"Hopefully this will go to someone who respects their title," Ranger Smith declared.

Former Ranger Jones grumbled as he was left to stew in his own mess, until the police came and took him away.

"Well, that wraps up this case, gang," said Fred. "And it looks like progress on Jellystone Mall will be going off without a hitch!"

"You betcha they will, Frederick-my-boy," Doggie Daddy confirmed. "And I'll gladly get you all a huge discount for when it opens up."

"And what about yours truly?" Yogi asked. "Bein' a bear, I ain't exactly flush with the bucks!"

"As for you, Yogi, ol' pal, you and Boo-Boo get to eat for free at the food court!" Doggie Daddy responded.

"Usually I'd be against that, but they've earned it," Ranger Smith said with a smile. "Maybe it'll help keep him away from the picnic baskets."

At this, Yogi and Boo-Boo both cheered and slapped fives. "It's just as well—I guess time will tell!" Yogi responded. "Nye-heh-heh-hey!"

A while later, the gang decided to camp at Jellystone so they could rest and re-supply.

"Now this is what we needed, huh, guys?" Fred asked. "Rest and relaxation in the great outdoors!"

"It's nice to get away from doing so much work every now and then," Velma agreed as everyone sat around a campfire.

Shaggy and Scooby were roasting marshmallows and hotdogs on sticks.

"Like, I've had marshmallows, and I've had hotdogs..." Shaggy remarked. "But I never combined them!"

"Until now!" Scooby added.

"I've never been camping before," remarked Scrappy. "But this is great!"

"Ri rigured rou'd rike it." Scooby said while enjoying the peace. "Scooby-Dooby-Doo!"

As they continued their camping trip, a postman came by and headed over to Yogi's cave. "Delivery for Yogi Bear!" He called out.

"That'd be me, buddy," said Yogi as he approached the doorway.

"Here you go," The postman said as he gave Yogi his mail.

"Thanks, pal," said Yogi as he went in to look over it. "Hmm...well, I'll be! It's from our old pals, Peter Potamus and So-So!"

He went inside his cave to check it out. He sat on his hammock and opened it up.

"To Yogi and Boo-Boo:

It's been a while, and I figured we oughta get in touch again. So-So and I are working on a new project to travel the globe. It's an upgrade from the ol' Magic Balloon, personally...and enclosed are some sketches. Personally, I think it'll be fun-tastic! You guys are welcome to come along!"

Included in the envelope were a few drawings of a flying boat.

"This could be a great adventure, for sure!" Yogi declared in excitement as he got up. "I'd better tell my little buddy about this!"

And so, he went looking for Boo-Boo.

It was, after all, going to be...Funtastic!
