I'm not sure what you mean by checking off "the Redwoods". There are a number of places you can see giant redwoods and sequoias, notably Sequoia and Yosemite National Parks. I'll make the assumption you'll be hitting northern California.
There are a lot of lesser-known spots to visit in northern and central CA. I recommend you pick up some guide books for California and the other states you'll visit; you can read them on the trip out and get a few ideas.
Here are a few of my favorite California spots:
- Mono Lake to the west of Yosemite is one of the strangest places you'll ever see; maybe not worth a special trip but definitely stop if you pass by.
- Big Sur is one of the most spectacular drives in North America, if not the world. Unfortunately it's closed due to a landslide earlier this year. I'm not sure how much of it is passable.
- Everyone should visit San Francisco at least once. So much to see and do.
- Although Napa Valley is the country's most famous wine region, the wine country above Santa Barbara is also beautiful. (If you watch the movie "Sideways", you'll recognize many of the locations. Plus the movie will give you tips on winery etiquette; it seems you're not supposed to drink out of the jar they dump the leftover wine into.)
- The almost-ghost town of Columbia is the original state capital and an original gold rush town.
- I like Death Valley, but it will still be pretty hot in September.

Today's Featured Article - An Old-Time Tractor Demonstration - by Kim Pratt. Sam was born in rural Kansas in 1926. His dad was a hard-working farmer and the children worked hard everyday to help ends meet. In the rural area he grew up in, the highlight of the week was Saturday when many people took a break from their work to go to town. It was on one such Saturday in the early 1940's when Sam was 16 years old that he ended up in Dennison, Kansas to watch a demonstration of a new tractor being put on by a local dealer. It was an Allis-Chalmers tractor dealership,
