Indiana, known as the "Hoosier State" since the 1830s, joined the Union on December 11, 1816 as the 19th state. Indiana has also earned the nickname as the "Mother of Vice Presidents" (Schuyler Colfax, Thomas A. Hendricks, Charles W. Fairbanks, Thomas Marshall and Dan Quayle). Indiana means "Land of the Indians".
Indiana, one of the Great Lakes States and in the East North Central Region, is bordered on the north by Lake Michigan and the state of Michigan, the east by Ohio, to the south by the Ohio River and Kentucky, and on the west by Illinois.

Northeast Native American Cultures -
Poster Text: The northeastern part of the U.S. and Canada includes coastal lands, rivers, the Great Lakes, valleys and mountains. before the arrival of European settlers, this region was mostly one vast forest. In these woodlands teeming with deer, bear, rabbit, and other animals, most of the Indians were hunters and gatherers. They also fished in the lakes and rivers. In wet marshy areas Indians gathered wild rice. And in the summer, some tribes planted crops of corn, squash, and beans. ...

James Whitcomb Riley
b. 10-7-1849, Greenfield, IN
d. 7-22-1916
James Whitcomb Riley quotes:
• “It is no use to grumble and complain. It's just as cheap and easy to rejoice; When God sorts out the weather and sends rain - Why, rain's my choice.”
• “The ripest peach is highest on the tree.”
• “When I see a bird that walks like a duck and swims like a duck and quacks like a duck, I call that bird a duck.”
• ...“An' little Orphant Annie says,
when the blaze is blue,
An' the lamp-wick sputters,
an' the wind goes woo-oo!
An' you hear the crickets quit,
an' the moon is gray,
An' the lightnin'-bugs in dew
is all squenched away,--
You better mind yer parunts,
an' yer teachurs fond an' dear,
An' churish them 'at loves you,
an' dry the orphant's tear,
An' he'p the pore an' needy ones
'at clusters all about,
Er the Gobble-uns 'll git you
Ef you
Don't
Watch
Out!”
