ANSWER: Unfortunately, Sun Spots has little skill when it comes to cutting window shades, so she’ll stick to writing. But that’s also why Sun Spots keeps her Rolodex. Here are a couple local businesses that offer such a service:

Gamache & Lessard Window Decorators located at 995 Center St. in Auburn has an in-house workroom and also offers repair services. You can reach them by calling (207) 783-0052. 

Custom Window Decorators at 1478 Lisbon St. in Lewiston can cut window shades. Their number is (800) 273-1119.

DEAR READERS: In Thursday’s Sun Spots column, an anonymous reader asked for contact information for Bil Mosca, who with his wife Susie, hosted the original contest that gave away the Center Lovell Inn. At that time, Sun Spots had limited contact info available, but after seeing the column, Mr. Mosca called to provide Sun Spots with updated information. You can reach him at by calling (207) 925-3322, or by emailing bilm51244@yahoo.com.

DEAR SUN SPOTS: I am the Poland town manager and we had a brass veteran’s plaque turned in to the town office. We have contacted the State Veterans Affairs Office for help locating a family member to return the plaque, but they have no information so far. The World War II veteran is Frank Thomas and he served as a TEC 5 with the U.S. Army. Please call the Poland Town Office at (207) 998-4601 if you have any information. We’d also like to thank the family for his service.
