I think June is pretty magical in just about all places, but I have to say from your descriptions of Wight, it sounds almost ethereal.

Your words also bring to mind the beauty that is all around us each day if we just take a moment or two to notice.

Thank you! Wight is stuck in a 1950s time warp, thank heavens. The roads have not been widened to take the automobile. I still hear horses clip clopping past my window, see a horse and cariage.
I see lots of 1950s old cars that wont take four people of today's corpulence.

The skylark sings by day and, right now, the nightingal by night.

And I eat fresh, locally caught, crab and sole or skate, drink wine from nearby Rosemary Vineyard, one of three island wineries; eat Wight honey and wash with Wight lavender soap!
Life is sweet here.

What beauty surrounds you! The description of your Isle makes a landlocked Hoosier hungry to walk the beaches hand in hand with a lover; stroll past the English gardens breathing air laced with the scent of roses and lilac; sit in a sun-dappled garden with her love and sip wine and watch the sun go down to a symphony of bird song and contented purring! It makes one want to swallow the Isle whole like a melon and laughingly spit the pips at the world!
