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.

Fri. July 28, 1961
Up at 7.00, shaved and went down for a shower. Then wrote. Partly cloudy. Had breakfast at 8.30 then went up to Sue Ellen. Walked around the point and had some blueberries.
Went up to see the rooms in cabin or the old barn.
Had lunch at 12.30 of Tuna fish salad. In afternoon read paper and then had a swim.
Later on took a ride to North Conway. Went canoeing in Evening with the women. Went up to the old barn where they had a movie going on.
Then went up to our room #2 Lin’s #1. Just two cots in our room.
I slept fine.
