(3,186 posts)we see occasional transients who go around picking up bottles off the side of the road for bottle deposit money. Therefore, an unfamiliar, random guy walking along the roads in this town wouldn't necessarily raise any red flags... 2 guys might tho- since bottle-picking transients tend to be loners...
Also, we have a lot of out-of-state people who vacation here. If these guys aren't too disheveled looking, people would just assume the man (or men) is a vacationer; if it is someone we locals don't recognize.
There is (so far) no indication that they are in my state, but Vermont, upstate NY and NH are very similar to us in these ways.
Side-note: Even though the escapees are unlikely to be in my area, this thread has prompted me to look for my house keys, because you never know... I haven't seen them in over 5 years, but I really ought to clean out some of the overflowing junk drawers anyway...
