Morning Edition: Ferries

Today was supposed to be the day crews start the process of dry docking Connecticut's two state run ferries for the winter. The future of these historic ferries are uncertain. After state union workers rejected the first labor and concessions deal with Governor Malloy, the ferries were targeted for closure, but remain open while union members mull over a second deal. In the meantime the towns that surround the ferries are looking for other ways to keep them open.

We talk with Lyme's First Selectman Ralph Eno about his trouble communicating with the DOT and what the ferry means to his town.
