This week on the Down East Journal, the latest on the Bonner Bridge closure. Efforts are underway to repair the span. In the meantime, emergency ferry routes have been activated to transport motorists across Oregon Inlet. And, we explain how to make a traditional southern holiday favorite Pull Mints during our three week series “Sweet Treats.” The Down East Journal airs Friday at noon on all of the PRE stations and Saturday at noon on News and Ideas.
