Water line LAID

I like to have a few projects going on around the house, but this one was dragging on a bit. Our water line currently comes down the old lane, which you couldn't find now, but goes through the backyards of two neighbors. Its a good line, cold water, good pressure, and so forth but it is now about 55 years old.
When the cul-de-sac was put in I had the foresight to have them install a hook-up at the street. Then when we redid our TV room and made it an entrance (which included taking up the floor, removing the old porch, and building new stairs) I had the idea to bury a new line from the water heater area to the outside of the house. The plumbing store would only sell me a roll of 100' of the blue plastic pipe so I used about 30 feet on that deal.
So last fall I started digging some holes in our Japanese sand garden. I would dig for a few minutes and then sit there and pant and wonder why I couldn't work as hard as I used to could. Before winter set in I had a trench 3' deep extending to the lawn. During the winter some of the sides sloughed off requiring some extra digging, I also found out I had cancer which explained my shortness of breath and endurance. Monday I decided to finish the job so I started to dig the trench across the lawn, trying to save some of the roots of the trees I was going by. Here it is Sat. and with the help of Matt we were able to install the pipe from the house to the sidewalk. I was going to mine under the sidewalk but I would have been about 3 feet short so I'll do this part and then whoever is living here when the other line ruptures can call a plumber and have them hook up the two ends, splice the middle and connect to the new meter. Good luck whoever you are.
