[Philmont] philmont red roof inns/pilot to bombadier locations

Jay,

Bring the trowel. Backpacking food can affect the digestive system in
peculiar ways. You may have a crew member who can't wait for a Red
Roof Inn. Scouts also have a tendency to drink excessive amounts of
root beer at the cantinas which can lubricate the plumbing. Bring the
trowel.
