On the restorative powers of music and fresh air.
Piano Found Near Summit of Mountain
LONDON - Volunteers tidying up Britain's highest mountain have found a piano near the summit, a conservation group said Wednesday.
The instrument was discovered at the weekend under a pile of stones near the top of the 4,418-foot Ben Nevis, according to the John Muir Trust, which owns part of the Scottish mountain.
Well YODEL-LAY-HEE-HOO. Brings new meaning to that old classic "The Hills Are Alive... With the Sound of Music."

***UPDATE: I asked some friends to postulate how such an implement might have reached the top of a mountain. I recieved the following limerick in reply.
On the mount of Ben Nevis, Scotland's loneliest peak
Stands a piano of who's history no-one can speak
It was hoisted there by twelve crazy men and a cart
Not sure if the endeavour can be called all that smart
Only clever thing is, it will never sink or spring a leak.
