Hi, I am fascinated by deserts and dream of moving to one someday. Are you familiar with these barren landscapes?
Oh yes I sure am, In my state we have lots of them! Do you know a lot about deserts? what can you tell me about them? 
I'm aware that desert conditions are hostile for most plant and animal life. Also I'm familiar with some deserts in Nevada.
Oh yes thats one of the few things I worry about in the desert, those poor animals, How hot does the desert get in general?
I'm not sure of exact heat in general, but the Great Basin Desert for example is temperate, with hot dry summers and snowy winters.
