I would love to visit a desert sometime.
Good evening, I would love that too. I have never been before, have you?
I haven't been but I am fascinated by a place that doesn't get much water and would be a hostile environment to get plants to grow.
I agree, the lack of vegetation and lack of rain is interesting to me. 
Plants and animals living in the desert need special adaptations to survive in the harsh environments.
The wind-blown sand grains striking them, must be something they get used too and are prepared for. 
I don't know if I would have survived one of the trade routes long ago that required going through the desert to reach my destination.
Especially in the rare chance it did rain, if you were near any hot rocks it would shatter them and blow the particles all over the desert. 
Did you know deserts can be cold? Antarctica is considered a cold desert
Wow! I did not know that. That is why deserts are so interesting.
