Campground Communication

I received this in an email and am passing it on...

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 this was 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 bviously 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 toknow that my daughter met her husband there. We are also having afund-raiser to purchase new seats, as the old 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.
Sincerely,

Your Campground Host

Popupcop I'm going to have to send that to some people at work. They will get a kick out of it. What part of Western Arkansas are you from? I have family that lives in Wicks. It's about halfway between Mena and DeQueen.

AW... I am about 100 miles farther north near Van Buren.  I had a uncle who was a pharmacist in DeQueen so I know a little about the area where your family lives.
