I was going to defrost mine but then it occurred to me that since it is in
the garage, it would need some kind of help to get warm enough to defrost!
Duh. I have some spray bottles of stuff that I bought that are supposed to
hasten the defrosting. Don't know if that actually works or not. My
freezer came with a little ice scraper. I just used it on the obvious ice
that was up near the top. That will have to do for now.
