Such Fun to be Had(lyme)! Chester-Hadlyme Ferry June 14, 2008 Who doesn’t love ferries? It’s funny that I have pages for this quaint little riverine one as well as the quainter and littler riverine one up north, but we all ignore the monster ferries that dock along the Sound to take people to Nantucket and Long … [Read more...]
