Yeah, Cedar! Wanna make somethin' of it, Buddy. Let's step outside, sit down with a nice drink and debate the relative merits of Cedra vs. Spruce
I'm trying to work in the spirit of Torres: use what's available, don't fuss if it's not "Master Grade", apply your skill and knowledge and make something beautiful-something that transcends the status of its origins.
I just wish that I had some sort of reference to judge my progress. I'm going by feel and intuition a lot of the time, based upon experience and study. Still, it would be nice to access a mentor who could say, "You're getting it." or "You're missing the mark, this is what you need to do to achieve your goals..."
