Our contractor worked over the long holiday weekend and was able to get our new water line installed from about where the original gate was to where the house will sit!
See my posting from Friday titled, We're In The Trenches Now! to see the neatly dug water line trench, which was about 20 inches deep. They then ran a single strand of heavy duty 1.5 inch blue water line tubing the 600 or so feet and have since covered it all over!
Excess tubing coiled up at the old gate, circled in red below, which will need to be connected to the water meter. We ran into a bit of a snag on Thursday with the meter and have the utility company involved to help resolve it today -

As Samuel Taylor Coleridge's wrote in his poem, from The Rime of the Ancient Mariner, - "Water, water everywhere, nor any drop to drink", but we're getting closer to remedying this issue!
