#1 could be a False Chanterelle. As with anything you plan to eat, if in doubt, throw it out. That's the only really good easy rule there is about picking and eating wild mushrooms.
If #2 actually has teeth hanging down under the cap (I can't see them in the photos) then they are Hydnum repandum, a choice edible. Young specimens will have relatively tiny teeth. This mushroom could easily be mistaken for a Chanterelle from above while walking through the woods. Compared to a Chanterelle they have brittle flesh.
#3 sounds like a Smooth Chanterelle, a close relative that has a nearly smooth underside to the cap. They are just as edible as regular Chanterelles.
The next ones are Gomphus floccosus, which is strongly not recommended for eating. Although there are some people who eat them, lots of people who try them end up with an upset stomach (meaning nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea). They make for great photos, though.
The big ones (with the dollar bill) are Amanitas, and they look close to A. caesarea. If you pick them, be sure to dig up the entire base of the stem so you get the volva. Although they are edible, as Amanitas they should be avoided until you can be absolutely certain exactly which one they are.
Then you've got some nice green Russulas (as far as I know all the green species are edible), although an ID to species requires a microscope.
The boletes look interesting.
Great looking area and photographs. Enjoy your edibles.
Happy mushrooming!

Well looks like ToxicMan covered everything. 
You're so lucky to live in such a prime hunting area. The photos and descriptions were great, as usual. Those green Russulas are neat looking- not too many green mushrooms. That Bolete looks perfect, I hope you got to it before the flies!
awww, I like the turtle!

I don't remember if they are hollow, the stems are usually thinner than chanterelles, some pics, the color and shape is close to chanterelles, I find them under pine trees.

The ones I have in question are found under pine trees, and look almost exactly like chants, but are hollow and have a very distinct smell... They taste like nothing... all texture no taste...

Sounds like some kind of "waxy cap", hygrophorus or hygrocybe, some of them look like chanterelles and some are very brightly colored.

Chanterelles will be found in areas of coniferous trees, with sandy earth, most of the evergreens, for example. You'll also find them under Oak trees.
Chanterelles don't have true vanes like you see on agaricus. Instead you have something that looks more like a VEIN. It stands up and meanders a little randomly through-out the underside of the chanterelle. You don't find them growing in logs, or from the actual wood of a log, those are generally jack-o-lanterns, instead. Jack-O-lanterns look more like agaicus than Chanterelles.
Yes, I KNOW how old this post was. But I'm describing the Chanterelles *I* eat, and where I find them, and where I know them to grow in my state.

You mean "true gills"?
