<div>I live year-round on a small island...Mount Desert Island in Maine. Yes, it is bridged, but I spent most of my summers just offshore of MDI, on Gotts Island, which isn't bridged or electrified or plumbed. <br/> <br/>Here on MDI I love the sea and the rocks. I wouldn't feel right being landlocked! The rocks are amazing here! I love the cool weather and living in a town of 400. <br/> <br/>I don't like the constant summer fog, but we live with it! I don't like our dependance on tourism to sustain the economy here and watching people lose their homesteads and shorefrontage to people who live here for 2 weeks a year..watching traditional industries die to remain quaint! <br/> <br/>Where are you located? What do you love about where you are and what brings you down? <br/> <br/>Lisa <br/></div> <div> posted in <a href="http://SmallIsland.tribe.net">I Live on a Small Island</a> - 4 replies </div>
