Hi Joe,
Yep! Been there, done that. (or is that BTDT?) Much more important -
don't forget to put it back down. ;)

One thing I've got to learn - even after almost 40 hours of flying this
plane - is to put the gear up! I'm so used to fixed gear planes that I
don't even think to put the gear up. I was flying Sunday and just couldn't
figure out why I had lost 10-12kts off my already sluggish top speed. It
only took me 30 minutes to figure it out :) It's also a lot quieter with
the gear up!
