This blog shares the journals of my great-grandfather Nelson Hjalmar Lindgren (b. 14 Oct 1884 Sweden d. 3 Mar 1976 E. Prov, RI). These writings give a window into a fascinating man and give the story of a remarkable life of a first generation Swedish-American. The daily entries of Nil's journals from 50 years ago will give our family a greater connection to our past.

64°/88° 5.34/6.59
Nice day up at 7.30 and read paper.
Went for a swim at 11.00 and got home about 12.00. Calm. Water 71°.
Stayed home in afternoon to wait for Wards to bring lawnmower to DeCiccos.
Then we went to Lindsleys and bought plywood for bookcase.
Worked on that till suppertime. Ed came in for a while.
Watched T.V. till 10.00. Head still hurts when I chew.
