Ya know the astronaut with the dogs in his photo? His name is Leland Melvin. He’s from Lynchburg, VA.

When I lived there, the city declared April 7, 2008 “Leland Melvin Day” and because I have a weird affinity for weird days, I put it on my calendar.

Happy Leland Melvin Day.
Oh dang. I should’ve tagged @Astro_Flow. Happy Leland Melvin Day, Leland Melvin.
