It's too easy to overshadow all the beauty and excitement experienced in the process of the flight to PA and back, and the fulfillment of the desire for a thermal that was dearly needed pales when that thermal does not materialize so close to the attainment of a well sought goal. Nevertheless the desire to repeat the journey, if not the finish, smolders until the next diamond day.
