You might be wondering why the first two pictures are of Nate and Mark outside of the airport. Well, as luck would have it, Mark's backpack (an essential part of most backpacking trips) failed to arrive with Mark at the Las Vegas airport. As you might have deduced, this posed a slight problem for our trip. Luckily the friendly workers at Frontier Airlines told us that they had no idea where the backpack was and that they couldn't (i.e. wouldn't) put us up in a hotel room for the night. They did give us three $6 Starbucks gift certificates, so that pretty much evened everything out. Oh, and since we got to the rental car place so late, they were out of what we were supposed to get so they gave us a crappy PT Cruiser with no license plates and a thirty day tag that expired on March 28, 2007. This picture was taken a little after midnight on April 6, 2007.
