How do we know he was wearing shorts? Did he not pack any long pants?
If he didn't pack long pants then well... I'll just stop right there with my next train of thought on improper packing/planning for weather conditions.
If he did pack long pants why could he have not changed into long pants and put his "dirty" shorts into his backpack?
How cold was it the evening he arrived in shorts? Not that it really matters but my boy will walk out of the house to go to school wearing shorts in 40 degree weather and not think twice about it and we live in the south!
ETA: I don't think he took off from the house with his things with the intention of walking to his friends or hoping to find a ride. I do think it is possible he was outside playing or walking to a neighbors (even in shorts) and someone stopped to offer him a ride or use of their phone (if his wasn't working).
BBM: So this "someone" took the time to take him back to MR's house to collect his backpack, fishing pole and not working cell phone? :waitasec:
ETA: Nevermind. I see what you're saying. You think he took his things with him and he "just happened" to run into that random kidnapper.
