Indiana
is a study in contrasts. Southern Indiana is mainly agricultural. Its
rolling hills become the foothills of the Appalachians to the south and
east. This southern area, through which you'll be driving, is the only part of the state not reached by
the mammoth glaciers during the ice age.

The north, or
Lake Area is mainly flat with small hills of debris left during the
melting of the glaciers. This area became one of the prime manufacturing
areas in the country. At one time it was one of the top ten in the
U.S.A. During the last two decades, much of the manufacturing has been
moved overseas as manufacturers try to maximize their profits.
