		One island, occupied by a large, Victorian house, was connected to a smaller, neighboring island by a white, arched bridge.

		It was taken, he said, from the center of the island, and as a result, the island is now barren in the middle with trees growing only around its edge.

		Additionally, from the 1960s to the early 1970s the islands were significantly reshaped by efforts to control mosquitoes as the population of Brevard swelled during the race to the moon.

		But the Thousand Islands still function as habitat, provide a "learning laboratory" for students eager to explore the mazes of mosquito canals, and give us a place to escape the rigors of life.
