Bicentennial planning

If things go well, by the end of the month, Phoenix Swords will hit 200 performances (as I count them) since we were created 6 years ago. As September first is our “offical” anniversary, that seems to work out well to me. (Like so many anniversaries in my life, there is some dispute over this one too. Should it be the day I came up with and registered the name, our first show with the new name, or the day we announced ourselves to the world. We generally go with the last, which was the first of September, 2002.)
I count each day we’re at an event as a show. So, SCRF this year counted at 6. (That way, when counting who does how many shows, I can track if they’re only there for some of the days.)

So far we’ve traveled 65866 miles (as measured from my home) doing shows. In states that breaks down to the following number per state:
State # shows
MA 77
CT 50
NJ 17
FL 13
AL 12
NH 11
ME 4
NY 3
MD 2
OH 2
VT 2
Ontario 1
PA 1
RI 1
SC 1
(Yes, I know Ontario is a province not a state. Give me a break here.)
We’ve got 1 more CT and 2 more Maine on the schedule this month.

In terms of distance, the % of shows in miles from my home is:
10 5%
20 13%
50 21%
100 28%
250 74%
500 86%
1000 91%
2000 93%
5000 100%

So, only 5% of the shows are closer than 10 miles to my home. 74% are within a 250 mile round trip. 100% have been less than 5000 miles round trip.

I’ve also tracked the coordinates of each show. The average location is in central New Jersey right now.

Anyone care to guess which are the farthest north, south, east or west shows?

farthest north would either be ontario or maine.
I'm going to guess the ohio one is the farthest west.
the one in rhode island for the farthest east.
as far as south..
it's close between pennsicola or mobile, there fairly even so it's a difference of only a few miles at most.

How well did i do?

1 out of 4.
Sorry.
I will say this much, Ontario was 5th from the top on North...

No other guesses?
Maine this weekend was the most North.
Down East Pirate Festival was the most East.
Mobile at the Zoo was the most west.
The birthday party we did in Pensacola over near the crab place was the most south.
