Default Mesquite

Anyone use mesquite? I live in Arizona where these trees are pretty
plentiful. I have a friend in the tree trimming business who often comes
across very large sections of this tree. He brought me a few 2 foot samples
today, just rough chain sawed. I dressed them into some 8/4 stock and they
really came out beautiful (smelled like popcorn or something while milling).
I'm just wondering if I've struck it rich here, or if it's just fool's gold.

Any experience with mesquite??
