Finder producing path error

The following results appear to me to indicate something drastically
wrong with the Finder. Is there any other explanation?
tell application "Finder" to get folder (path to desktop folder)
result===>>> folder "Desktop" of item "k8"
(that's it... no mention of the Users folder or of the startup disk)
And, so, there is an error when the following script is attempted:
tell application "Finder" to get folder "Desktop" of folder "k8" of
folder "Users" of startup disk
result===>>> "Finder got an error: Can't get folder \"Desktop\" of
folder \"K8\" of folder \"Users\" of startup disk."
So it seems to me that the full address of the desktop folder is not
available, and that any script that wants to make new files on the
desktop, for example, won't be able to find it.
Thanks for your help
H.
