A very proper lady began planning a week's camping vacation for
her and her Baptist Church group.
She wrote to a campground for reservations. She wanted to make sure that
the campground was fully equipped and modern, but couldn't bring herself to
write the word "toilet" in her
letter.
So, she decided on the old-fashioned term "Bathroom Commode."
Once written down she still was not comfortable.
Finally she decided on the abbreviation "B.C." and wrote, "does
your campground have its own "B.C.?"
When the campground owner received the letter, he couldn't figure
out what she meant by "B.C."
He showed it to several of the campers, one of whom suggested the
lady was obviously referring to a Baptist Church since there was a
letterhead on the paper which referred to a Baptist Church.
So he sent this reply.
Dear Madam:
The B.C. is located nine miles from the camp ground in a beautiful
grove of trees. I admit it is quite a distance if you are in the habit of
going regularly.
No doubt you will be pleased to know that it will seat 350 people at
one time, and it is open on Tuesday, Thursday, and Sunday of each week.
Some folks like to take their lunch and make a day of it. The acoustics are
very
good, so everyone can hear even the quietest passages.
It may interest you to know that my daughter met her husband there.
We are also having a fund-raiser to purchase new seats, as theold ones have
holes in them.
Unfortunately my wife is ill and has not been able to attend regularly.
It's been a good six months since she last went. It pains her very much not
to be able to go more often.
As we grow older, it seems to be more of an effort, especially in cold
weather.
Perhaps I could accompany you the first time you go, sit with you,
and introduce you to all the other folks who will be there.
I look forward to your visit.
We offer a very friendly campground.
