Palm Springs

Palm Springs is a desert resort city in the Southwest of the United States of America.

Description

Palm Springs is a landscape only slightly more hospitable than the planet Mars. Sun-blasted ochre mountains ringed a valley patchworked with unnaturally green golf courses, dusty barren flats and sprawling neighborhoods of white stucco walls, red-tiled roofs and blue swimming pools. Lining the streets, rows of listless palm trees stuck up like raggedy seams. Asphalt parking lots shimmered in the heat. A brown haze hung in the air, filling the valley like watery gravy
