The guys from Midwest had a great time in Pickle lake with Ray as base manager.Still remember the time Ray and Ricky C went on a drill job for 5 days and decided to stop drinking and smoking until they got back to Pickle. I just happened to hit town the night they got back. Oh what a night is all I can say. Ricky couldn't move off the couch the next day until supper and then it was back to bed. Meanwhile both Ray and I had to go to work that day. We had a few for him at the Pickle Hotel that night but I seem to remember it was a short night. Lots of good times for sure....25 yrs ago at least! I think they took DZE on that drill move.

Pretty dumb comment...dah! We were their best customers.

Sorry DGP, it was meant as a joke. I spent quite a bit of time in both those establishments too

Well, can't say I wasn't pickled in pickle lake with forestry or drillers leading the the way. But what are the ramifications of breaking the 12 hour rules? Which on a full 14 hour day, leaves zero time to have a drink with dinner? Prison? License suspension? Fines? Just curious as a retired guy, and feeling sorry for everyone but engineers. No duty day drinkers, lol
