Hey, it’s Donovan Short – and for those of you I haven’t met over the last couple decades of hanging around the station, I’ll probably catch you eventually. I’ve been here in Wyoming since 1998, when I moved up from my original hometown of Birmingham, Alabama. The original radio job I came for was only supposed to last a year or so, but I fell in love with Wyoming, and eventually got married, bought a house, and started a family here – almost 20 years later, I’m still fortunate to be working with the same great radio stations in the same great city, and life is good.
