I found this cluster of mushrooms today.
There were probably 10 - 12 growing together in a cluster.
Mushroom is Orange in color
Stem is orange/white
Stem is thicker than most mushrooms i find. About the width of my middle finger.
Gills are well separated and orange as well
Smell is kind of sweet under the cap
No spore print yet
Found growing on acidic soil on a roadside

I will confess something that should be quite obvious, CC. I love mushrooms, i.e. fungi. I really do. I am talking about a strong feeling, i.e. emotion, for them. I think they are beautiful. I even dream of them.

WOW! That is cool-
I found a translucent tongue like mushroom that was supposed to glow in the dark, made a special trip to the site after dark, and I think the moon was too full. Thanks for the info and the experience.

Take the mushroom in a pitch black room. Cover all LED and other light sources, shove a towel under the door to prevent light from coming in- cover ALL light sources. Then let your eyes adjust. It usually takes 2-5 minutes for your eyes to adjust to the dark. Hold the mushroom in front of you and see if you can see the green glowing. The gills are the part that glow. It's super cool.
