Malad City, Idaho

We couldn’t believe we made it to Idaho on our second day driving from So Cal. We stayed just into Idaho near the city of Malad. Malad was named by a French trapper who’s men had gotten ill. Believing it was the water there, he named it Malad from the French word Malade which means sick or bad. We were glad to get to the spot in the daylight (long days). We were going to make it to Ed and Nancy’s farm early on the third day of driving.
