ʻO ka home o ka Hale Kuhikuhiʻo Florida
ʻO kahi mākoleko wale ma ke komohana o Orlandoʻo Clermont, kahi i hala aku i nā makahiki he nui i kalaiʻia ma ke alaloa e ka ulu lāʻau ulu aʻo ka Florida Citrus Tower kahi mea hoʻokipa kaulana loa o Florida. ʻOiaiʻo ka hale kiaʻi'āina ma kahi - ua kokoke i 60 mau makahiki -ʻaʻole ia e huki i ka lehulehu i hoʻokahi manawa, akā, ua kūpono ka hopena. Ke laweʻoe i ke kiʻekiʻe i luna, hiki iāʻoe keʻike i nā mile a puni; akā, nā mea āu iʻike ai ua loli.
Ua hoʻokipaʻia he nui o nā ululāʻau ulu e nā māhele a me nā plazas kūʻai. Ma kahi o Clermont e pili ana iā Disney World ua hoʻokumu i ke ala o ka holomua a ua hoʻololi i ke kaiāulu no ka wā pauʻole.
Ka Moʻolelo: A laila a meʻAia
Aia ma Lake County, i kapaʻia ma kahi o 1400 mau loko, ua manaʻo muaʻiaʻo Clermont e hoʻoholoʻia i ka makahiki 1868 e Herring Hooks. Ua manaʻoʻia kāna 40-acre Grove kahi Florida nursery mua. ʻO kekahi hui liʻiliʻi o nā kāne i hoʻohanohanoʻia mai Vineland, NJ a i ka makahiki 1884, hoʻolaka lākou i ka mea i kapaʻia he "colonnization". Ua kapaʻia ka hui i kapaʻia - Clermont Improvement Company - no ka luna nui a me ka ukupanee o ka Hui nona kahi i hānauʻo Clermont-Ferrand, Farani. ʻO ka pahuhopu o nā kāne ka hanaʻana i ke "kūlanakauhale kūlike." I ka makahiki 1891, ua hoʻohuiʻia ke kūlanakauhaleʻo "Clermont, Lake County." He mau makahiki ma hope mai, uaʻikeʻia ko lākou mau moeʻuhane i kaʻikeʻiaʻana o ke kūlanakauhaleʻo "Gem of Hills" no kona mau hale nani me nā laina a me nā alanui i mālamaʻia, nā loko maikaʻi a me nā mea nani -ʻo ia hoʻi kekahi o nā wahi maikaʻi loa o ka moku'āina.
I ka hapanui o ke kenekulia 20, ua ulu pono kaʻoihana ulu ma Clermont. Ma mua o ka hoʻopukaʻana o ka'enela i nā mea nui, a me ka hoʻonui pinepineʻana o ka hoʻolālāʻana i nā ulu lāʻau hou ma ke kūkulu hema, ua hōʻeaʻo Disney World i Central Florida. He hoʻokele ia e hoʻololi maoli i ka'āina o Clermont.
ʻAʻole i lōʻihi ka lōʻihi o ka hoʻonuiʻiaʻana o ka waiwai o ka'āina a me nā mea ulu nui e ulu i ke ala no nā mea hoʻomohala. ʻOiai ua noho mauʻo Dowler Clermont i nā makahiki, he nui loa ka loli o Clermont. ʻO nā puʻuʻo Rolling i piha i nā lālā o nā kumu lāʻau i kēia manawa ua hoʻoneleʻia me nā laina o nā hale. Me ka piʻiʻana o ka heluna kānaka i ulu mai i ka uluʻana i kaʻoihana waiwai a hoʻokipa i nā mea kūʻai nui a me nā mea liʻiliʻi loa i kēlā wahi; a ua laweʻia mai ka hale kūʻai kūʻai nui ma Lake County a hiki i Clermont.
ʻAʻoleʻo Walt Disney wale nō ka malihini hou i kēia wahi o Central Florida. I ka makahiki 1989, ma 127 mau eka i kahi mau mile ma ke kūkulu'ākau o Clermont, i hoʻonohonohoʻia ma waena o nā ululāʻau ulu o Central Florida,ʻo Gary Cox a me kekahi pūʻulu o nā mea kālā i wehe iā Lakeridge Winery a me nā Vineyards. I kēia lā, ma hope o nā makahiki o ka ulu nui maoli, kūlanaʻo Lakeridge i ka lanakila nui loa a Floride a noho paʻa i ka paionia ma ka hoʻomohalaʻana i ka papaʻaina a me nā waina uila mai nā hua waina.
ʻAʻole i loaʻa i nā mea kūkulu i ko lākou ala me nā'āina maikaʻi loa ma Clermont. Ma kahi mau mile ma ke komohana o Clermont, ua hoʻokaʻawaleʻia e ka Moku'āinaʻo Florida 4,500 mauʻeka e mālama ai i nā wahi e pili ana i ke kai o Lake Louisa, Lake Hammond, a me Lake Dixie.
Aia ka Lake Louisa State Park i kahi kahua hoʻomoana kūʻokoʻa, nā kauhale kahiko, nā kauhale kauhale a me nā hale hoʻolimalima hou. ʻO nā hana e pili ana i nā hele lio a me nā lio, ka waʻa, ke pīkī a me kaʻauʻauʻana.

Aia ma ke alahaka o ka moku'āina - ke ala o ka State Road 50 (e holo ana i ka hikina a me ke komohana ma o ka moku'āina) a me ka US Highway 27 (e holo ana i ke kūkulu'ākau a me ka hema ma waenakonu o ka moku'āina). ʻO Clermont aia ma kahi o 25 mau mile ma ke komohana o Orlando a 25 mile ma ke komohana o Disney World a me kahi 10 mile ma ka hema o Florida Turnpike Exit No. 285.
