Another Pleasant Valley Sunday

This tranquil view of the Somerset countryside is taken on the A359 road between Wanstrow and Bruton looking towards the village of Batcombe.

It reminds me of the song 'Another Pleasant Valley Sunday' by The Monkees, although i don't think the lyrics describe the location, however, I have printed them as I like the song!

The Monkees - 'Pleasant Valley Sunday' Lyrics

The local rock group down the street
Is trying hard to learn their song
Seranade the weekend squire, who just came out to mow his lawn

Another Pleasant Valley Sunday
Charcoal burning everywhere
Rows of houses that are all the same
And no one seems to care

See Mrs. Gray she's proud today because her roses are in bloom
Mr. Green he's so serene, He's got a t.v. in every room

Another Pleasant Valley Sunday
Here in status symbol land
Mothers complain about how hard life is
And the kids just don't understand

Creature comfort goals
They only numb my soul and make it hard for me to see
My thoughts all seem to stray, to places far away
I need a change of scenery

Ta Ta Ta...

Another Pleasant Valley Sunday
Charcoal burning everywhere
Another Pleasant Valley Sunday
Here in status symbol land

Another Pleasant Valley Sunday...
Beautiful image with lovely colors, textures, patterns...everything I would expect Somerset to be. Fav
