I guess what I am saying is that making Laconia more of a destination does not depend on improving drugs and crime which is an almost insolvable problem but a worthy aspiration.

If you make it interesting, fun,, etc, they will come. It is 74 degrees in Coral Gables and packed with visitors despite both drugs and crime.

Just a thought.

I've just taken Coral Gables off my list of places to visit ...
