Bodie ghost town is about 30 miles north of Mono Lake, off US 395. It's at the end of a well-maintained 5-mile dirt road, and worth a look:

Yep, been there but the wife hasn't. Thanks for the reminder.
At Mono Lake, get up before sunrise and make your way to South Tufa. The signed left turnoff is from US 395 (small brown sign), about 3 miles south of Lee Vining and the junction with California 120 (Tioga Pass Road):

It's worth a try, but I have no idea what accomodation is like in Lee Vining - we're driving up from Vegas for the weekend so I figured that we'll probably make it to Bishop if we leave after Ann finishes work.
If you have time, drive 120 west into Yosemite National Park at least as far as Tuolomne Meadows. The sunsets there are spectacular this time of year:

I'd love to go on 120 - been trying to drive along there for a while but as I'm usually in California in March, it was always closed when I was there. Let's see if we'll have the time.
The trail to Mono Pass is worth a day too (8 miles round trip at 10,000 feet, relatively flat). The trailhead is about 1.5 miles after the park entrance station, on your right. At the pass, you might see this guy:

Now that sounds worth doing.
At Bryce Canyon ("A hell of a place to lose a cow"), walk down the Fairyland Loop:

Again, thanks.
Spoiled by the relative proximity of Yosemite, I prefer Bryce's red rock sculpture to Zion's rugged granite. But if you get to Zion, walk up the Zion Narrows along the Virgin River.
Well, Zion and Bryce are quite close to Vegas and with Ann living and working in Vegas, it's an easy weekend trip... 

Enjoy your trip!

Will do, thanks for your recommendations.
