Where has the time gone? Today is my 17th anniversary at WNEP.
As I was telling a much younger co-worker the other day, I still enjoy getting up in the morning (or late at night) and turning on the computer to learn something I didn't know the day before. I still enjoy getting my hands on a story and thinking about the best way to pass along the information to you. I still enjoy being the first to know things. There's a lot of sadness in this job, but it is never boring.
The station and the business have changed a lot in the last 17 years. Technology moves at an amazingly fast pace. I'm lucky that there are people here to guide me along. It's also nice to work at a place with so many seasoned broadcasters and journalists. You're only as strong as the weakest link in the chain.
There are times I miss my radio days, and the people I separated from at other TV stations. I'm still in touch with many, and I'm thankful for that.
It's been a good ride, and I have faith it will continue to be a very long and varied adventure.
