Rain in the Desert

Why does water disappear so quickly in the desert after it rains?

 Well, to answer this question, Samuel created a desert with soy butter...

 crushed cereal...

 pressed firmly, and....

rain!

Conclusion: The water was not absorbed because the sand was too thick.

This was the last day to study the desert (science) which has ignited extracurricular planning time for a trip to Saguaro National Park.
