It's been more than two weeks since Superstorm Sandy hit the coast, and while there wasn't too much damage in the Ohio Valley, some local workers headed east to lend a hand in hard-hit New Jersey.

On Wednesday, Asplundh tree service workers came back to Brooke County after spending more than two weeks working to get the shore back up and running.

Crews spent 17 days clearing trees that had fallen on power lines.

"We worked 16 hours a day, 7 days a week. We ate out of a tent they set up. It was good eating. I'm proud of the guys. They worked real hard, and they came back safe," said Tim Ryniawec, a foreman with Asplundh.

Ryniawec said helping out others in the country isn't something new for Asplundh. Last year, workers from the company spent 20 days on the East Coast after Hurricane Irene.
