One blog post<\/strong><\/a> was tempting, questioning why it took from 5:30 PM until 8:15 PM to get to the hospital, 85 miles away [2 hours and 45 minutes].  He proposed that perhaps they were shooting quail after sundown [sunset in Armstrong Texas was at 6:15 PM on Feb. 11th]. But he forgot about the time zones, which made the disparity in the timeline less strange. <\/div>\n
 <\/div>\n
Nevertheless, it’s still a decent point. If the call to Washington were immediate [which seems likely since they weren’t even sure what happened and who shot who on that first call], it is possible that they were hunting at or maybe shortly after sunset. That would make the story make more sense as to why Cheney wouldn’t have seen Harry Whittington. <\/div>\n
