This is my second post here, the first was about 6-7 weeks ago when I
started private pilot lessons. Feeling pretty good because I soloed
yesterday. Soloed after 13.7 hours. What a rush. I fly out of Bay City
municipal in Texas. That is all, I just wanted to tell somebody.

Welcome to the club!!
Few things in life can compete.
And they are all much older experiences than flight for us humans.

Way to go!

This marriage is off to a shaky start. The groom just asked the band to
play "Your cheatin' heart", and the bride just requested "Don't come home
a'drinkin' with lovin' on your mind".

Good job, John!

Now keep pushing. You've got a ways to go yet, but it's all downhill from
here!

Just don't quit, now.
Finish what you have started.
This is one of the best investments you will make.

Congratulations John! That silly grin will stick to your face for about a
week or so.
