Looks to me like you just want to create a static route for MN LAN in CA, then put your default route in CA across the WAN link. This looks to be a fairly simple configuration. If you wanted to spice it up, you could use RIP, or some other routing protocol to propogate the LAN routes to both locations. You could even have RIP advertise the default route, but you might like to make the default route static.
