What happens here

The presenter begins digging a trench for the water line that will serve the outdoor kitchen, leading to the location where a Woodford hydrant will be installed. He emphasizes the importance of burying water lines below the frost line to prevent them from freezing in winter, mentioning that his local frost line is 18 inches but he aims for 26-28 inches deep. This part of the trenching process continues to involve careful operation of the mini excavator.

Goal: Dig a trench to install water service for the outdoor kitchen.
