Greetings, All You Spring Flowers
Hopefully the trees and grass are nearly finished spreading their pollen just in time for one of the best-feeling, outdoor exploring times in Virginia! There is a whole day dedicated to cherishing our moms on Mother's Day, our military men and women on Armed Forces Day, and we will kick the summer off right with annual Memorial Day backyard barbecues. The air is just right for cruising down Jefferson Avenue and Warwick Boulevard with the windows down, or you can hop on two wheels on your way to work to help recognize Motorcycle Safety Month. Be sure to smile at all the strangers you encounter and join the masses in celebrating National Smile Month. Here's a BIG smile from all of us at Oyster Pointer to you!
