To all SSC Station occupants

Thank you for the donations over the past year (2024), it is much appreciated. I am still trying to figure out how to migrate the forums to another community software (probably phpbb) but in the meantime I have updated the forum software to the latest version. SSC has been around a while so their is some very long time members here still using the site, thanks for making SSC home and sorry I haven't been as vocal as I should be in the forums I will try to improve my posting frequency.

Thank you again to all of the members that do take the time to donate a little, it helps keep this station functioning on the outer reaches of space.

I'm from Belgium and more specifically near Ghent.
I live in a smaller village near Ghent but I'll post some pictures from Ghent cause there ain't all much to show from the village what photos concerns.

There were some flooding problems in other parts of Belgium and it got really close in the center of Ghent, but good thing the rain stopped in time 😕

I honestly thought it was Amsterdam when you first posted your pictures. A beautiful place Tarash and glad you were not flooded out too. 🙂

Hehe, yeah me too 😉

Saw that you were from Scotland, how I would love to go back there one day.

Of all the places I've seen, I lost my heart to the Highlands.

I'm serious, no kidding.

Wow, I love the diversity around here. Very awesome.

As for me, I love in good ol' Los Angeles, CA, and have for over a decade now, but I'm from Philadelphia originally.

Nijmegen is a very pretty city, oldest in Holland. The second picture is my favorite park, Kronenburgerpark. It's not very big, but in the summer it's a very nice place to just sit down and relax. I'm not much of a nature freak but I think it's funny how there is such serenity in the middle of a big city...

perspective is not natural, it's much shorter in reality. the mountain in the picture facing south is very close to the airfield, about 5km.
