Where is the AF?

OK, someone's taken me to task for putting a story about Adams Farm on this blog. That's in Greensboro, the post-er wrote. You've broken the rules! The person seemed awfully offended, as though I had besmirched his or her mother's good name.

So, I ask you...

Where is Adams Farm? Yes, I know, technically it's in Greensboro. But it almost became a part of Jamestown. High school kids go to Ragsdale in Jamestown. The closest grocery stores for some AF residents are in north High Point. Certainly, the AF is closer to the center of Jamestown and HP than it is to GSO.

Is this a community without a municipality? Should anyone care?

Adams Farm! Where are you?

Poor Justin. You really don't know where you are. The closest grocery store in Adams Farm is in Adams Farm Shopping Center. Harris Teeter. That is where everyone shops.

Pilot Elementary is in Adams Farm, Greensboro.

Please go buy a map and drive around.

Thank you, Zeneta. Perhaps you would deign to be my tour guide and set me straight? Then I, too, can be a local geography wiz.

Which YMCA do the Adams Farm people most utilize? The Mary Perry Ragsdale Y in Jamestown, most likely. I would consider Adams Farm to be almost Jamestown, but not exactly.

I live in Adams Farm, which of course was annexed by GSO. However, I think of AF as being the spot between GSO, Jamestown, and High Point. We should at least get honorary membership into North HP and Jamestown.
