DEAR SUN SPOTS: I have three 3½-inch computer disks with photos on them. Is there anyone I can contact to have them check these for me and possibly print out the contents? Thanks for your help.
— No name, no town
ANSWER: You can go to Photo Finish in the Auburn Mall at 550 Center St. This company is across from Claire’s near Kay Jewelers. You may want to call first and explain what you have and get an idea about what it would cost to print your photos, but it shouldn’t be very expensive. Hopefully, they can pull the photos up for you individually and you can decide which ones you want. Contact them at 207-783-3354. Photo Finish is open Monday through Saturday from 10 a.m. to 7 p.m.
