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.

Wed. July 19, 1961
Up and out at 8.00. Had breakfast in Annapolis and then went to Naval Academy and looked that over then went route 40 to Atlantic City, stopping for a snack, by the road about 1.00.
Got a Motel, the B&L, on #40, at 3.30 and then went to Atlantic City and wandered up and down there till about 6.30 when we stopped at Kents and had a nice supper.
Then walked up and down the Boardwalk till 9.00 when we left and went to Motel where we had coffee and so to bed.
Moon out in Eve.
