How I thawed out a frozen underground water supply line from the street to my house

A few weeks ago I woke up and found I had no water. At first I thought it was inside the house, but on the advice of my brother I dropped the meter and found I had no water coming into the house. I called plumbers, but they all wanted to dig up the line. So I watched a couple of you tubers and developed a pan and went to the box store and pick up a pond pump, 125 feet of 1.4 nylon hose and a gate vale. I came home went to work. It took about 12 hours or so to clear 90 feet. I ran into 3 or 4 blockages, but with a little work I manage to break through. IT was under a 100 dollars to do this as compared to the 1500 + to dig.
