Getting them into your computer is a good idea, but you first might want to go through the pictures and discard some. It's easier than you think. If some are quite old, you might not remember where the picture was taken or who is in it. Why keep those. You may have duplicates of many. Be strong and spend some time doing that. It's might not seem easy at first, but as you go through, you might just realize you're keeping pictures you just don't really need any longer and soon, you'll have made your treasures a little more manageable.
Personally, I keep my extra photos in the house...too humid in the attic. Mike and I spent time over the years weeding out pics we no longer needed. Now, I've got lots and lots of color slides that need to be put into the computer. We've weeded through them, discarding pictures we took that really aren't that important any longer. It's work, but it's really fun, too.
Good luck!
