Narrative:

On a bright, sunny, clear, windy, gusty and very turbulent day, I was cleared to land runway 24 and subsequently instructed to taxi to the end and 'contact ground point niner' (121.9). The approach and landing were quite stressful keeping on glide path and extended centerline but all went very well. I was delighted but stressed out. I taxied to the end of runway 24, exited the runway and began taxiing toward the hangars. To contact ground point niner slipped my mind till down the taxiway.
