Default I'm A Private Pilot!!

I'm a Private Pilot!!! I cant believe it!! A month ago I had two hours of flight, and now I'm a Private Pilot!! It's been a crazy hectic month, and I cant really believe how much I've learned. Even more, I cant believe I'm a Private Pilot!!

It goes by fast, when I got my instrument back in July I had around 100 hours. Now four months later I have about 245 hours, but now the crappy weather is moving into Washington. I hate snow and cold weather!!!!!!

Don't get much snow where I am, but for sure glad to see colder temps. Especially after the scorching hot summer we had!

I took my Checkride with about 54 hours. I think I solo'd with about 25 hours.
