Just had to post this as a warning for anyone staying at The Place in Damascus: For the love of Jesus, Mary, Joseph, and everything holy, PLEASE do not think that you can bring alcohol there, or break any other of the rules including sleeping on the couch (a rule that has been broken a lot recently). Lone Wolf does patrol it every day, even at random times throughout the night and you will be asked to leave. I don't know why people seem so surprised and get hostile when they're busted for breaking the rules. There are signs EVERYWHERE espousing the rules. It's private property---the church can run it however they see fit. If recent events are any indication, I don't see The Place lasting too much longer. I am sick of people thinking that the rules somehow do not apply to them. You aren't the first one to hike the trail (or ride the TransAm trail) and you won't be the last. GET OVER YOURSELF!!!
