Things to do in Florida May 11, 12, 13, 2012

Mom is Queen of all these Things to do in Florida May 11, 12, 13, 2012 and as we all know, Mom loves her Bar-B-Que. In the Fort Pierce, FL area, that means the 1st annual Treasure Coast BBQ Championship! With the proceeds going to help the The Humane Society of St. Lucie County, you'll not only be treating the Queen to championship level ribs, but you'll also be giving many deserving homeless dogs and cats a chance at a better life. Can't beat that with a stick. Now for music worthy of royalty, you may want to take Queen Mom to a FREE Mother's Day Concert performed by the Pensacola Symphony Orchestra. Tell her the tickets were outrageous but she's worth it. Okay that's terrible - it was just a joke. Anyway, there's music for all tastes and all budgets on this week's list of things to do in Florida May 11, 12, 13, 2012 from another FREE concert in Niceville to 3 spectacular performances by Lady Antebellum (you have to pay for those). There are also events covering a wide variety of interests and choices of entertainment including the 'Festival of Roses' in Sarasota, FL on May 12th to Lawn Mower Racing in Avon Park also on the 12th of this month, so ladies and gentlemen - start your engines. You may also want to watch your feet. Finally, remember the most important rule your mother ever taught you as you look over this list of things to do in Florida May 11, 12, 13, 2012 - If Mom ain't happy, Mother's Day's gonna suck. So make her happy and y'all have a good one!
