South Bend's problem has been that they have this cute little New England-looking town, nice houses on the hill overlooking the water and so on, and a zillion tourists zip through there every year, but there's nowhere for them to stop and nothing for them to do. When you sit down and analyze it, they have a lot of potential down there.
