| Hello/Intro LiveFit Return to index of stories... |
Every day in NH thousands of meals are served in one of the Common Man family of restaurants. In this program we're at the Airport Diner in Manchester -- one of those restaurants-- to learn about an ingredient that's NOT on the menu any more. Hello. I'm Beth Carroll. Welcome to NH Outlook. More on that story in a moment, but first: In the 1940's, two brothers from Manchester introduced a new culinary concept to America - fast food. Opening the first McDonald's restaurant in California created a ripple effect across the country. Eating on the run is now as much a part of American culture as --- well -- apple pie. Critics of fast food say it's helped create a generation of obese children. That criticism seems to have sparked change within the industry as fast-food restaurants offer more healthy options. The key is knowing what to order. We offer some help in this LiveFIT New Hampshire report from Portsmouth author and registered dietician, Eileen Behan. She took Outlook's Phil Vaughn and his children on a ride to the drive through. |

We look back on the life of Brad Washburn: photographer, explorer and man of science. |
| Intro Washburn Return to index of stories... |
Finally, we remember Mountaineer, Educator, Explorer and Cartographer Brad Washburn. He died January 10, 2007 at the age of 96. Outlook's Richard Ager first introduced us to Brad Washburn in 2005. |
| Washburn Return to index of stories... |
Track: The White Mountains of New Hampshire are far from the world's highest peaks, but they are where Brad Washburn's love of mountains began. He was 11 when he first reached the summit of Mt. Washington. At the time, you could say - he was seeking refuge in high places. Bite: Washburn tape 1 02:55 In 1921, I had a cousin who was at Yale - poor guy - called Sherman Hall. And he came up to visit us. I had awful hay fever. And he said I want to climb Mt. Washington and I said let's go. And we drove over to Pinkham Notch and went up through Tuckerman Ravine and I'll never forget that trip. It was wonderful. Hay fever - phht. That was the end of it. Track: And it was the beginning of a life spent exploring, climbing and sharing his love of mountains. At 17, he wrote his first book in a series of true stories for boys. The subject, his climbing adventures in the Alps. He also wrote books about climbing in Alaska and Mt. Washington - all before going to Harvard college. After graduation, he led a National Geographic expedition to an unmapped region of the Yukon. Bite: Washburn tape 1 10:43 *** I remember very vividly in our camp in 1935, going to bed one night with the fog just above the top of our tents. And the next morning, I remember being awakened by the heat of the sun on our tent, even though the temperature was around zero, And I came out and got the most exciting view, the most thrilling view I ever got in my life. Was this great peak - 5000 feet high rising way above us. Track: In 1937, Washburn returned to Mt. Washington to take his first series of aerial photographs. Bite: Washburn tape 1 30:10 And the pilot flew out of the North Conway airport which was right in the middle of a shopping center today. But later on I decided that I should have a larger negative. These negatives were 5X7 and I got an old camera in a hock shop in Los Angeles for $300 and this took 8X10 negatives. And this is the reason that with our pictures, if you want to enlarge them, you can make them as big as a house. Bite: Washburn tape 1 32:25 That was very simple with Mt. Washington. We took the door off and I had a chain with a snap link on the end and I hitched it on the other side of the airplane so that I could reach the door but get a little bit out of it. And then if I wanted to get a better picture, I would just tell the pilot that I wanted him to skid the airplane - work the left pedal. Or do a vertical bank so I could do a vertical picture. SO YOU'RE LOOKING ALMOST STRAIGHT DOWN OUT OF THAT DOOR, AREN'T YOU? Occasionally - very rarely. I THINK I WOULD HAVE GONE FOR TWO CHAINS. Then, you see, it was quite easy because I knew how to fly myself, so I could tell the pilot just exactly - I want you to get a little bit nearer - no nearer, nearer. Pilots never realized just how big these mountains were and when you were still 10 miles away, they were scared. So I just said keep going nearer and nearer. Now I want you to make a sharp left turn - lift that wing up, skid it a little bit. Lot of left rudder - bang, we get the picture. Standup: Washburn tape 2 01:35:10 Brad Washburn first became famous for his exploits among the world's highest peaks, but he has another lasting legacy. For 41 years he was the director of the Museum of Science in Boston, transforming it from a repository of dusty artifacts into the major institution it is today. Track: It is also where he met Barbara Polk, although she was reluctant at first to take the job. Bite: Washburn tape 1 12:30 I can say it was a mothball institution. When he tried to hire me, I said I'm not going to work in that horrible old place….He kept pestering me and calling me every night and I finally got smart and I said if he is that aggressive, maybe that museum is going to go somewhere and it might be a very interesting job. soundup: Washburn tape 2 01:20:45 Cage getting zapped Track: The museum did go somewhere. Now one of the world's largest science centers, it attracts 1.5 million visitors a year. Bite: Washburn tape 2 01:07:50 I think Brad changed the whole field of science museums because he took the classical natural history museum and changed it when he moved here into a building that would house all the sciences under one roof. It was a very new idea in the fifties, and that was his vision. He even got away from the hall of biology and the hall of chemistry and into this idea of a smorgasbord of exhibits, so that when you walked around, you might make connections with the physics exhibit next to a chemistry exhibit next to a geology exhibit. Track: Barbara married Brad, and in 1947 became the first woman to climb Mt. McKinley - now known as Denali - in Alaska. She wrote about it in her own book, "The Accidental Adventurer". Bite: Washburn tape 1 50:00 Well, it was a pure accident as you can see. I was not into climbing. The only exercise I did was wheeling a baby carriage, I didn't play tennis, I didn't swim, I didn't walk. I didn't do any of the things my children. BUT YOU CLIMBED MORE THAN 20,000 FEET IN THE EARLIER DAYS OF MOUNTAINEERING ON THIS CONTINENT. Yes, and that's why it was an accident. And everything about my life with Brad was an accident - even marrying him. It was fate that put us together. They refused to use my title for the accidental adventurer. Which I said I was sure would triple the sales. Now you got to say what was that? And I say sex on ice. Track: Though running the museum greatly reduced his own time for exploration, Washburn invited adventurers like Alan Shephard to come visit. Bite: Washburn tape 1 23:44 I think we regarded him as a great hero. I remember just exactly what he said. That was a sort of cylinder - he was lying on his back - they took - splashed into the water. I'll never forget what he said as he was lying on his back looking up at the guys who were opening up the door. He said "man what a ride!". *** Track: And a ride is what ended - in Brad's words - 41 years without a promotion at the Museum. Bite: Washburn tape 1 29:00 At our retirement party. It was wonderful. Brad had said many times I hope before I die that somebody carries me in a sedan chair to the top of the mountain in Darjeeling and lets me see Mt. Everest. So that's what that was all about. They dressed in these Sherpa outfits and carried us in the sedan chair. Track: Of course, retirement is a relative term with the Washburns. In the 1980's, they created the definitive map of Mt. Everest soundup: Washburn tape 1 58:45 * This route has never been climbed. Nobody has ever …paper thin like that. Track: In 2000, the Museum of Fine Arts in Boston mounted an exhibit of Washburn's aerial photographs - which many compare to those of his good friend, Ansel Adams. The exhibit curator wrote: Graphic: "Perhaps the central visual message of Washburn's aerial photographs is the revelation of how the earth works. This is at once good science and expressive art." Bite: Washburn tape 2 01;06:57 I don't think you got that moose from Maine. I think that moose came from Alaska. I don't know where it came from but it's a big son of a bitch. Track: Jack Middleton has known Brad Washburn for half a century. Their connection is the Mt. Washington Observatory, which is about to receive a major gift - Washburn's entire series of White Mountain aerial photographs. soundup: Washburn tape 1 55:43 "Looking down on the summit building in 1937. and that just shows all sorts of things that aren't there today. Bite: Washburn tape 2 01:15:12 Obviously it's an extremely generous gift that Brad has made. It's a gift - the Observatory will be able to reproduce those photographs for years to come. You saw some of them today - they're just spectacular photos of Mt. Washington and the nearby mountains. It's a great gift - those photographs can be sold and the proceeds go to benefit the Mt. Washington Observatory. bite: Washburn tape 1 42:40 It's always the highest point in the eastern United States, and the view from the top is glorious. In fact, if you're on top of Mt. Washington at sunrise, you can see what you can't see in the rest of the world. The horizon and then the sun glittering off the water of the Atlantic Ocean. Track: There are many other stories that could be told of Brad and Barbara Washburn's lives. In 1988, both were honored by the National Geographic Society for "an illustrious career in mountaineering, exploring, mapping and museum administration." Their fellow honorees - sir Edmund Hillary, Jacques Cousteau and Jane Goodall, among others. Bite: Washburn tape 1 45:20 It was very impressive. We were the first ones to go across the stage because we were the oldest. And it was in the grand ballroom of some big hotel in Washington and when that music started up, I began to cry. It was very emotional and we were the first ones to walk out. And our kids were in the audience - and I thought I can't fall apart now, so I pulled myself together we walked across the stage. But that was a very impressive evening. And at that moment, George Bush had been elected President but wasn't yet president. He appeared on the stage with us. And he came behind us all and wished us luck. And I turned to - Bush father - and said I wish you luck too because it was just his first day as President. Track: So after all the exploration, mapping, and science - what does Brad regard as the highlight of his career? Bite: Washburn tape 1 49:45 Oh, that's simple as hell. Mapping her. Mapping me? Cross that out. THAT'S NOT ONE THAT'S DISTRIBUTED BY THE NATIONAL GEOGRAPHIC, IS IT? Yes, finding her was the greatest thrill of my life. Track: For NH Outlook, I'm Richard Ager. soundup: Washburn tape 1 57:10 *** That's a pretty damn good gift I'd say. |
