Things to do in Florida May 20, 21, 22, 2011

If you're looking for things to do in Florida May 20, 21, 22, 2011 you've come to the right place. Each Wednesday (or sometime thereabouts) Florahome USA's most popular post offers Florida residents, vacationers and the armchair tourist a look at some of what will be happening all over the state for the upcoming weekend. Florida is both beautiful and wonderfully diverse and even if you're a lifetime resident, the things to do in Florida post is a great way the learn more about the state. Of course it would be impossible to post every event, but the list does try to offer a little something for everyone with a special emphasis on family type fun. This week's things to do in Florida May 20, 21, 22, 2011 is typical and even here in Florahome, FL we have the Bostwick Blueberry Festival and the Watermelon Festival over in Newberry as two of Saturday's event choices (sometimes there are so many things to do in Florida it comes down to a preference in fruit.) May 21st is also Armed Forces Day and there has never been a better time to remember and honor those who have served our country and those men and women who serve today. Military families as well should be in our prayers making sacrifices daily with no medals to show for their service. This in mind, The Naples Zoo is first on the list for their contribution. Hope you find some great things to do in Florida May 20, 21, 22, 2011 and speaking of contributions, any photos of any events listed on Florahome USA you'd like to share with the rest of us would be greatly appreciated. Have a good one.
