"Det finns inget dåligt väder, det finns bara dåliga kläder"
Literal translation: There is no bad weather, there are only bad clothes
This is widely used in the winter as Swedish winters are cold and dark.
In the early 20th century my paternal grandparents, Richard Kallman and Lydia Abrahamson, immigrated from Sweden, coming to a new life in Chicago. I've been researching my family for over twenty five years. In this blog I will share the family history, photos, documents and stories that I have collected, along with my memories of growing up Scandinavian-American in Chicago. Welcome to My Swedish-Chicago Heritage!
