Those are the top 5. Your sales may not match expectations, but those are the cream of the crop, artist-wise. There is lots more to say on this subject, and I'm sure many will chime in.
Thanks Jim. There are so many shows listed that it seems overwhelming to sort through them.

I'd chime in with some logistical considerations, if you have any, Michelle. This will make the question easier to answer, and easier for you to sort through the replies.
*When are you coming? When are you leaving?
* Florida is a big state, particularly north to south, and it surprises people when they first visit. Are you planning to set up a home base in a particular area? Do you not mind driving 300-400 miles to a show, or are you hoping to do more shows within an hour's drive or so?
In SW Florida, the Naples-Bonita Springs-Estero area is really hot: lots of good well-attended shows to choose from. Barry Witt has added a third Bonita Springs show this year and application period is open for some, or all, of them.
January through March is the most popular time: Lots to choose from all over the state. Earlier and later shows are very hit and miss.
