I'd try an LAX-IAH one day turn......Should be ~2600 round trip. Do a travelocity search to see what kind of fares pop up and the dates and go from there......
Also, check out the LAX-HNL service.....

Try using farecompare - the flyertalk link: http://www.farecompare.com/search/flyertalk.html
Pick LAX, narrow to CO. You can usually avoid min stay requirements if you look for one-way fares... also, look for connecting flights that compete with Southwest nonstops.
