sequioa is beautiful! i love it up there man! if you go up there too late in the year though, you better bring some tire chains and a layer or 2 of heavy clothing!
i'd recommend going through the mojave desert, if anything just to look and drive through, get baked under a joshua tree...check out kelso dunes and the surrounding areas for cool ancient lava flows and the tallest dune in north america, be sure to bring some very light clothing as it gets so bloody hot there! beautiful though
check out the coast, go to santa barbara and go up, take the gaviota campground exit and hike around there a bit, pretty awesome and serene beachside hiking there
there are so many awesome places in california, you might want to check out this show called california gold to get some more ideas, the host, huell howser, goes all around california, often to small not so well known places, and just trips around checking it out and learning about the area from the locals, the guy is a real trip as well so he's pretty engaging imho...one of my favorite shows:

...i'd so share a fine spliff of the blueberry i'm puffing with huell, he's the man
