On the recordSeptember 26, 1996
I really believe that in every community we have certainly wonderful natural beauty. I did not even mention the 27 golf courses. But I think every community in America has something historically beautiful about it, and certainly people went there originally, they ventured their risk capital, saying, ``We're going to settle here.'' I think we have to reach into that because if we find that same spirit, every town in America can be a tourist attraction.
