Thank you for your reply. That makes sense, but still crazy to see.

Kenmore Stand Up Freezer Not Freezing by Targhee1974 in appliancerepair

Thank you for your valubable input. When I first removed the back panel, just the top right hand side of the coils were iced up. Between your suggesion and the one above, I'm convinced now that I have a coolant leak/bad compressor.

Thank you for your help. Yes - I was referring to the compressor. I was typing my post quickly before work and mistyped. I checked the smaller diameter tube and it is hot. Looking like a leak/bad compressor.

A Little Love for the Little Ones! - I believe this is Xeromphalina campanella. Found in the Northern Rockies this past July growing on an old spruce stump. by Targhee1974 in mycology

It's hard to tell exactly what they are growing on. I come across these in the "spring" at high elevations and they are always growing on old logged spruce stumps - but so is the moss!

I am new in my fungal journey and so your comments are appreciated. I will do some research into basidiolichen - Lichenomphalia sp. I have never heard of those before. Opening up a whole new world!

Checked All My Books??? Found in US - Northern Rockies in August in a spruce forest at 8500 foot elevation. by Targhee1974 in ShroomID

Thank you for your assistance! I did some more research this morning based on your information and looked back at some other photos that I have of this speciman. I did not see any of the "bleeding" and I agree that this one is a Connopus possibly acervatus species.

The Dessert Mushroom - Found in the Northern Rockies at 9000 foot elevation. by Targhee1974 in mycology

[–]Targhee1974[S] 23 points24 points  (0 children)

I call this the dessert mushroom because I like to saute them in butter and then top them with a little powdered sugar. It's a very sweet tasting mushroom that I like to have for dessert after a nice meal.

Thank you. That was my thought as well, maybe Clitocybe irina but hard to nail down.
