We were up at O-Dark-Thirty because I had an appointment with the eye doctor for a six-month checkup.\u00a0 We had our coffee, jumped in the shower, and then departed for Irvine at 7:15 am.\u00a0 Thanks to Highway 241, we arrived at Dr. Kline’s office after about 20 minutes.<\/p>\n
SR 241 is the highest highway in Orange County and offers scenic views of both the Santa Ana Mountains and the cities below, passing through 12 cities and regions along its length.<\/p>\n
