Meat Cove

For such a small place, I will always remember my visit to the town VERY well. I was driving the Cabot Trail one summer, and I decided to stop into Meat Cove, just a lovely little place that nobody knows exist unless they live here…

To get to this place, there is no paved road. It is a winding dirt road that comes in off the highway. You drive in from the top of a mountain and as you come down the road further it suddenly drops into a very steep dirt hill…

Of course, it felt like I was driving down a rollercoaster hill, and when we got to the bottom, what happens? BOOM, thunder, lightning, and sudden RAIN. It absolutely started to pour, and we got stuck down at the bottom of that hill for about 5 hours because we weren’t able to drive back up the muddy slope!
