As I have in putting it all together.
The first people of Long Island were Indians.
The earliest people called the
Paleo-Indians & Woodland Period Indians
when the europeans arrived.
Many years ago, when men with a white skin had never yet been seen in this land,
some Indians were out fishing in the mouth of the Cohotatea [Hudson] River . . .
spied at a great distance something remarkably large floating on the water,''
an Indian told a Moravian missionary in 1801.
``Some believed it to be an uncommonly large fish or animal, while others thought
it was a very big house floating on the sea.''

Ocean washed beaches, dunes, maritime forests, the Fire Island Light Station
and the nearby William Floyd Estate, make this park a blend of recreation, natural
and cultural resources. Located only one hour east of New York City, the park is a
world apart from the bustling communities surrounding it. The 32-mile-long seashore
contains natural features such as the Otis Pike Wilderness Area, the only federal
wilderness in New York, and the Sunken Forest, a 300-year-old holly forest.
About half a million recreational visitors come here yearly,
including approximately 7,000 school children.
Montauk Point .... The End (my favorite place)
Welcome to the Montauk Point Lighthouse, the oldest lighthouse in New York State.
The Lighthouse was authorized by the Second Congress,
under President George Washington in 1792.
Construction began on June 7, 1796 and was completed on November 5, 1796.
This 100 foot tower has been part of Long Island's land and seascape for over
200 years and still serves as an active aid to navigation.
