major and minor pent together

my guitar teacher has me practicing major and minor pentatonic in my improvs this week. In particular, I'm to look at first position for major and minor and work with them in G. I even get to use some paper with a guitar neck printed on it to mark out the fret positions, red for minor and blue for major. We tried a little improv in the lesson today and I like the sound. More color and variety than just minor pent alone. So in the same area of the fretboard I'm moving between major and minor phrases and licks.

Also had a breakthrough with the Lake of Fire solo; now I understand the phrasing more clearly.
