In Death Valley, where the distant patter of rain is long forgotten and must sometimes seem like a dream, a barrel cactus cheerfully blooms amid the cracked mud. As the top layer of earth peels away, it takes on the appearance of smooth shaved chocolate and reveals a deeper and equally impenetrable layer below. We see the signs of rain the thirsty mud that expanded then dried and curled up, the green of the cactus, the lizard but in one of the planets hottest, driest places, rain is an occasional and capricious character.
