I greatly enjoyed this piece. It revived happy memories of treks in Borrego. I can hear the crunch of footsteps and sniff clean herbal aromas. So much to experience. Thanks for conjuring up the image of dessert life as intricate beauty and a game of chance.

Where is Flat Cat Wash? I tried to look it up and was presented with images of cats being washed and instructions on how to do so. But no "luck" on the whereabouts you describe so well.

It is the first side canyon on the north side of Hellhole Canyon in Borrego Springs Desert State Park in California. There are no cats in it, neither flat nor unflat.
