Chad Hollings and Michael Barry, employees of Florida Power and Light, arrive at the Ellenton Ice Complex as about 10 trucks and 20 restoration workers gather to form a convoy to head to Maryland, Baltimore and Virginia to help restore power to areas impacted by Hurricane Sandy. According to FPL, they are sending more than 560 employees to help. Though they are planning to be gone for 10-14 days, FPL spokesman Dave McDermitt said they'll be gone "as long as it takes."
