Well, after several years of saying “we should create a blog”, we decided that either it’s time to actually start it up, or just give up on the idea entirely. Â You’re seeing that we decided on the former path.
We don’t know what we’re doing. Â Neither of us have ever had a public blog of any sort. Â The goal is to also have a YouTube channel — that’ll be completely new to us, too.
But that’s sort of the point of granworks. Â We go through life jumping headfirst into something and hope that we’ll figure how it works as we go. Â Why would this blog be any different?
Who Are “We”?
We are Kurt and April Granroth. Â Both software engineers and both working for the same company (even on the same team). Â Two kids. Â Been married for almost 20 years. Â Trying to figure things out as we go.
What’s This Blog About?
It’s going to be an eclectic mix of what interests us. Â This will include DIY, Technology, Early Retirement, Investing, Sustainability, Theaters, and anything else that pops up. Â Expect posts on woodworking to be followed by figuring out an Arduino and capped by thoughts on compound growth.
A decent amount of the posts will likely be construction related, from DIY projects we’ve completed in the past. Â Slightly older and newer posts will be focused on building a home theater.
Going forward? Â We’ll see.
Why Subscribe/Follow?
If we had a motto, it would be “if we can do it; so can you.” Â More than anything else, we want to show that pretty much anybody can do some pretty cool things. Â You don’t need to be a pro to get pro-like results. Hopefully this blog will show how possible it is to do DIY; to configure a kick-ass media system; to retire early… and more.
