Excellent advice,
If you do not have a tailwheel endorsement yet and you have access to it I would even suggest finding a place that will rent to you and getting your endorsement and bombing around in a cub, as much fun as you can have during the summer with the doors open. I found a school to rent a citabria to me when I had 8 hours tailwheel time...silly them.
