Galena resident, Larry Hausmann, with one of his huge cabbages at Galena's Agricultural Fair. The long Alaskan summer days make for some good gardening.

Those who can't make it to the gym, can listen to KIYU's broadcast. Here's a fox that was spotted hanging out by the side of one of Galena's roads. Fox are a pretty common sight in Galena, they vary in colors too, from black to red to brown. These are some float planes on Galena's Alexander Lake in the autumn. This lake is used often for takeoff and landing of float planes.
