But between yesterday and today I managed to finish all of my required solo hours!! So what that means is I have officially completed all the requirements towards my pilot's license. The only thing left is a review flight or two with my instructor and then I will be ready to take the FAA flight exam. I am getting pretty excited to get this done and I can't wait for the test (hmmm... rarely do I say that) to make me an official pilot.
At the end of my flight this afternoon, I grabbed my camera and took this self portrait while flying to prove that I really have been up there and to mark the end of my "training".

I'm glad the weather finally cleared! Looks like you're having a great time.
That photo proves nothing. Just like landing on the moon, that photo could have been taken on a movie set in Arizona or New Mexico!!!
Wow, you're getting it done so fast! I've resolved to go twice a week until I'm done. No more month-long breaks!
Ironically, my instrument flying has been slowed because we're at the point that my instructor wants to do a few lessons in the clouds (not mandatory per the FAA, but important I think) and the weather has been too good for nearly two months now!
When you get your license, you'll have to join Jen, Jose and I in our little Saturday flying club to keep us all in the air once a week :)
