The Artworks depict the Waldos cruising in a ’66 Chevy Impala on the Marin County Point Reyes Peninsula searching for marijuana grow drawn on a treasure map given to them by a friend. Mouse’s Grateful Dead key art is on the car hood representing Waldo’s connection to the band at that time; and the worldwide Grateful Dead community who were largely responsible for spreading the term into the pop culture after hearing it from, and smoking it with, the Waldos. And of course, the time to meet at the Louie statue at San Rafael High School to get high and begin the search for the treasure was always 4:20, which also became Waldo’s secret code for getting high. Actually, it started as “420 Louie”, but after a month “Louie”, and the search, were dropped, but “420” lived on. Now, the term 420 has blossomed worldwide to be more than a time, or even a date, rather a culture and state of mind!
