    Hiking

    General Sherman is often credited with inventing the modern, targeted use of the "scorched earth" strategy in war. He used them (very successfully) against the Southern States during the Civil War. Appropriately, in my opinion, a US tank type from the Second World War was also named after him.

    Part of the Presidential Park in Washington. A beautiful equestrian statue that you can only get to at around 20m, as something is being renovated there.
