For the three years I lived in Canada and Michigan, I never did that - although my coworkers did. They kept asking me to join them, but after working outside every day didn't want to go with the little time I had off.

You fellas heard of Kalkaska, Michigan? That's where we lived and worked for two of the three years in the north. Small town they called a "village". No traffic lights, small grocery, diner, and small Ace Hardware store. They didn't deliver the mail there, you had to go to the post office to send and pick up mail. The "newspaper", all of six pages, came out once a week - also at the post office.
