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 - Tractor Traction - by Chris Pratt. Our first bout with traction problems came when cultivatin with our Massey-Harris Pony. Up till then, this tractor had been running a corn grinder and pulling a trailer. It had new unfilled rear tires and no wheel weights. The garden was already sprouting when we hooked up the mid-mount shovel cultivators to the Pony. The seed bed was soft enough that the rear end would spin and slowly work its way to the downhill side of the gardens slight incline. From this, we learned our lesson sinc
