Long Island, Maine je d\u016fkazem o hou\u017eevnat\u00e9m duchu ostrovn\u00edch komunit Maine. P\u0159es v\u00fdzvy izolace a prom\u011bnliv\u00e9 ekonomiky Long Island vzkv\u00e9t\u00e1 ji\u017e v\u00edce ne\u017e dv\u011b stolet\u00ed a stalo se jedn\u00edm z pouh\u00fdch 15 ostrov\u016f v Maine, kter\u00e9 st\u00e1le podporuj\u00ed celoro\u010dn\u00ed populaci.<\/p>\n\n
Ostrovy \u010dasto vyvol\u00e1vaj\u00ed siln\u00e9 emoce a osobn\u00ed spojen\u00ed. Long Island nen\u00ed v\u00fdjimkou. Po generace byl ostrov domovem, d\u011bdictv\u00edm a zdrojem hrdosti pro sv\u00e9 obyvatele. Jedine\u010dn\u00e1 geografie a historie ostrova formovaly jeho identitu a pos\u00edlily hlubok\u00fd pocit soun\u00e1le\u017eitosti.<\/p>\n\n
Obyvatel\u00e9 Long Islandu maj\u00ed dlouhou tradici sob\u011bsta\u010dnosti a podnikavosti. Rybolov, lov humr\u016f a turismus byly hlavn\u00edmi pil\u00ed\u0159i ekonomiky ostrova. Lunt & Lunt Lobster Co. je jedin\u00fdm podnikem na pln\u00fd \u00favazek na ostrov\u011b, kter\u00fd poskytuje zam\u011bstn\u00e1n\u00ed a spojen\u00ed s mo\u0159em.<\/p>\n\n
Long Island se nach\u00e1z\u00ed v z\u00e1toce Blue Hill Bay, pouh\u00fdch osm mil jihoz\u00e1padn\u011b od ostrova Mount Desert. Ostrov je obklopen men\u0161\u00edmi ostrovy, v\u010detn\u011b Great Gott Island, Placentia Island a Black Island. P\u0159\u00edstav Lunt Harbor, dlouh\u00fd podkovovit\u00fd z\u00e1liv, poskytuje ochranu p\u0159ed v\u0161emi pov\u011btrnostn\u00edmi podm\u00ednkami krom\u011b severov\u00fdchodn\u00edho v\u011btru.

V 19. a na po\u010d\u00e1tku 20. stolet\u00ed mnoho ostrovn\u00edch komunit v Maine zaniklo kv\u016fli pokroku a zm\u011bn\u011bn\u00e9mu zp\u016fsobu \u017eivota. Placentia a Black Islands, kdysi prosperuj\u00edc\u00ed komunity, jsou nyn\u00ed opu\u0161t\u011bny. Ob\u00fdvan\u00fd z\u016fst\u00e1v\u00e1 pouze ostrov Great Gott Island, ale pouze v letn\u00edch m\u011bs\u00edc\u00edch.<\/p>\n\n
Richs Head, nejv\u00fdrazn\u011bj\u0161\u00ed geografick\u00fd rys ostrova, je zaoblen\u00fd poloostrov spojen\u00fd s hlavn\u00edm ostrovem \u00fazk\u00fdm p\u00e1sem skal. Richs Head, kter\u00fd os\u00eddlil William Rich a jeho rodina ve 20. letech 19. stolet\u00ed, byl t\u00e9m\u011b\u0159 80 let domovem jedin\u00e9 dal\u0161\u00ed vesnice na ostrov\u011b.

Pocit soun\u00e1le\u017eitosti na Long Islandu je hmatateln\u00fd. Mal\u00e1 velikost ostrova a sd\u00edlen\u00e9 zku\u0161enosti vytvo\u0159ily mezi jeho obyvateli siln\u00e9 vazby. Francouzsk\u00e1 historick\u00e1 spole\u010dnost, Becky’s Boutique a Sbor Long Island Congregational Church jsou jen n\u011bkter\u00e9 z instituc\u00ed, kter\u00e9 komunitu stmeluj\u00ed.<\/p>\n\n
V posledn\u00edch letech se cestovn\u00ed ruch stal d\u016fle\u017eitou sou\u010d\u00e1st\u00ed ekonomiky Long Islandu.
