In the Pacific Northwest, Arcadia Drilling has been at it for three generations.
In Shelton, Wash., 20 miles northwest of Olympia, and home to Arcadia Drilling - a family business that specializes in residential water well drilling - local residents remember a stretch of 53 days without sun; but that doesn't seem to bother them. Arcadia Drilling likes the weather along with the tall firs, the abundant lakes and the lazy days fishing; and they like drilling water wells.
