200th Birthday!

The state of Indiana will turn 200 years old next year.

It was admitted to the United States as the 19th state on December 11, 1816.  As part of the bi-centennial celebration, the Indiana Historical Society with contributions from Care Group, Inc. has created a new free website called "Destination Indiana", www.destination-indiana.com.  The website has information about each of Indiana's 92 counties and a variety of historical tidbits about the state.  I am particularly enjoying the map collections.
