I replaced the dist cap, wires and plugs but when I hooked the wires back up to the dist cap I put them in the wrong order. So I went to start it and nothing. Put them the correct way and now it turns over but does not start.
Wondering what I need to do from here to get her running again.

Since you said that you replaced everything back I would check the coil plug wire.
Yeah that is the next step. It was running ok before that so I feel stupid that i tried to do a simple partial tuneup and because I rushed it I screwed it up.
Hey that is how you get better! I have learned more from my mistakes than my easy repairs! Some of us get to know firing order and cap orientation by memory from things like this! I am in MN too.

i have been known to put the darn things in 180 degrees off. and also look to see if you have used one of those clear washers next to the nut instead of between the two leads. it probably is a washer with a neck on it and it slides through the plate and the fitting with a black wire. you might have grounded the thing.
