Congratulations, that is an accomplishment. I have a PP license and soloed some time ago. Learned in a 152 and flew a Cherokee recently. It takes some brass... uh, shoes... to fly a single engine solo especially in the back country or in turbulence.

Its an expensive hobby and once you fly in a glass cockpit single, you wont want to go back to steam gauges. Glass around here is 150.00+ per engine running hour. Tower delays get really, really costly.
