Yes, we're still in Idaho and yes, that's a warthorg in the foreground (and if you squint, a giraffe in the background). This gem of a place is located in Melba on ID-45, right before you cross the Snake River.

For the last hoorah of Season 3, we invite some friends to join us on a trip to Melba to explore a place that specializes in the #perfectlyquirky. Content warning: this episodes contains mentions of peacocks, mannequins, Albert Einstein and sounds of a real life pump organ.

You Know The Place

Lacey Daley

By day, I manage all things digital at Boise State Public Radio. I also co-host and produce the podcast You Know The Place. By night, I'm probably counting pollinators in my garden, getting a work out done in the garage gym, or adding to my winning tally of Yahtzee games against my wife.
