Van was checked out at a repair shop. They think the transmission is fine. However, there is a steering lock problem; we are getting it fixed. Shop will give kids a ride back to the cabin; van will be ready tomorrow.
We are grateful that the problem wasn't the transmission. It would not have been worth fixing on our van, and that would have created all kinds of additional problems, especially since we are currently in the process of looking into filing a claim for damage done to our van's front passenger door in WalMart's parking lot last week.
The kids' concern about a possible transmission problem alerted us to the steering lock problem, which is a safety issue. It is, perhaps, a blessing in disguise (except for the $400 price tag!).
