Finally dug the trench across the road


for the water line to the well. Didn't actually take me that long. I only went down about 5 inches, but this is just the 'supply' line that goes from the well head to the tank, and I empty it out every time AND rinse it out before filling up the tank.



This is the top of the well, with my new in-line shut-off valve, which works better than the garden hose thing I had on there before. Now my well officially does 5 gallons in 45 seconds. I believe that works out to 400 gallons an hour. nice.
