6:22am: Depart Colorado Springs for LAX

In two hours, this trip has already proved to be an interesting experience. Leader Roger Roath had his name on the ticket switched to Roath Roger, which required several minutes for the airline to change. Koshare Tyler Trumble lost his cellphone and it was discovered by airport security. After browsing his contact list, they were able to get in touch with Tyler to return his phone.
