He agreed. I still was in doubt if I should go because it would be getting dark very soon. So I asked him if he knew the hostel in jail, which was mentioned in hikers book.<br \/>\nHe did not. Moreover, he was not going to smile, and asked instead, why I wanted to go to jail. I answered, \u201cnever mind, just drop me on the trail\u201d. That how said accidentally, I kept hiking in twilights in one of the rare places without any spot to set a tent because of high grass.<br \/>\nThen rehab in hikers hostel in Delaware Water Gap in church with a bit of volunteering, change a backpack again, crossing NJ\/NY line, staying at Bear Mountain resort, and crossing the Hudson River.<br \/>\nTrail Angels took us to their house for celebrating the 4th of July.
