Broken exhaust pipe

Hey all. I am very car-illiterate, so forgive me if I make my ignorance too obvious. I have a 96 geo tracker, and my exhaust pipe is broken at a point before it gets to the muffler, and now the tracker is rambling like a race car whenever it is on.
I would like to provide myself a simple inexpensive fix-up for a trip from school in Vermont back to home in Maine, if at all possible. Then in Maine I can get it fixed once and for all.
Do you guys know of any safe and simple solution that could answer this problem?
The exhaust pipe doesn't have a crack or hole, one side of the pipe is cleanly dislodged from the other side and they would fit back together very evenly if there were a simple way of "patching" them or something for the ride home. But again I've never dealt with anything like this, so I wouldn't know.
I greatly appreciate any help you can offer!

Hi neighbor,
I think your best bet is to let a Midas or chain place weld it back up but it's likely for the parts to be replaced for the long run. They should be able to do that while you wait. T
