As one who has virtually zero mechanical experience (except for 
extracting and disassembling a Corolla engine, couldn't get it back 
together, another story) the thought of doing what you did sounds like a 
great and wondrous adventure. The trip too. It must be great to have 
family and friends to put up with all that. What a great story!
Many thanks for sharing it!
