just wondering why its called midwest region when its all mid/north eastern?

Prior to June 1984, the Midwest Region was designated as the North Central Region. Something to do with the Census Bureau.

In the late 1700's the region was known as the Northwest Territory (of the U.S.) later to become known as the Old Northwest.  In some accounts I've read it was even referred to as The Great Northwest.  That during the Daniel Boone, Simon Kenton, Tecumseh era.

That was before the Louisiana Purchase.  At that time, the USA only went as far as the Mississippi river.  The Ohio territory (current Indiana, Illinois, Michigan) was then the Northwest.

 

After the Louisiana Purchase in 1803, the Ohio territory became the mid-west.

What day will most people be there?
My girlfriend will be almost 39 weeks pregnant then and attica is about an hour drive for me so I only get to be there one day, maybe... so I wanna meet as many people as I can.

I might have talked Max from dirtbound offroad to come down. Its about a 9 hour drive for him.

random pics, yet to be cropped or organized (although they are likely in chronological order).  a great time was had by all!  :comanche:

 

If anyone in the pics would like all the photos that contain your rig, just let me know and we'll figure out how to transfer them to you.  :L:
