- Linda Adams retired and moved to Glacier View Meadows in 2003 after a 30-year career in public policy and advocacy. She holds a master’s in Operations Research and Public Systems Analysis from the University of Illinois and a bachelor’s in History from UCLA. https://propecia-best.com/ Being a history buff, she became keenly interested in discovering the story of the Batterson Barn, which had largely faded away in the 100 years after the Battersons retired in 1903. She spent 5 years on intensive research culminating with the listing of the Batterson Barn and Stage Station on the National Register of Historic Places in 2010.
- Linda has also enjoyed art since childhood and upon retirement resumed her painting and creating wearable art. She began selling her work in local gift shops and arts and craft shows in 2006, and now participates in some two dozen shows throughout Colorado and Wyoming. She loves to work with natural and semi-precious stones to create items of casual elegance that each has a story to tell. In 2012 she opened the Batterson Barn Studio & Gallery above the garage, which is open 7 days/week by appointment. She also gives historical tours of the barn/stage station, homeplace, and grave to school children and various other groups coming from as far away as Denver.
- The Batterson Barn is located at: 603 Mount Moriah Road; Livermore, CO 80536-9411. Linda’s web-site is: www.LindaAdamsJewelry.jewelspan.com
