Meet a worm-fiddlin' woman; a chainsaw-wieldin' man; and some real-life underwater dancing mermaids-- sure to make a splash with the little ones! Join the fun at a flip-your-own-pancake restaurant; the Chumuckla Redneck Parade's lack-of-beauty pageant; or the get-nekked-if-you-dare Butt Hutt. Whether you're a born-and-raised Floridian or a recent transplant, authors David Grimes and Tom Becnel will have you laughing out loud as they introduce you to the neighbors you never knew you had and take you to places you never knew existed-- right in your own backyard.Grimes, David is the author of 'Florida Curiosities Quirky Characters, Roadside Oddities & Other Offbeat Stuff', published 2006 under ISBN 9780762741069 and ISBN 0762741066.
