Mike Mallon, left, and Tyler Fulton laugh Sunday while taking a short break on Lake Shore Road in Auburn. The lineworkers, who work for D&T Power, were called to Maine to help restore power. “They needed hands,” Mallon says. Mallon of Colorado and Fulton of Kansas say they travel the country and help where needed. “I’ve been on the road nonstop since Hurricane Ian (in late September),” Fulton says. The two say Maine originally had about 80,000 customers without electricity after the latest storm, but that was already down to about 40,000. Andree Kehn/Sun Journal
