Richmond

 

Here we are in Richmond, which is a town filled with history and also very pretty. 
Instead of writing all about the White House of the Confederacy I snapped the sign.

This is an exceptional example of "Sherman's neckties, Sherman's bowties or Sherman's hairpins.".  These were from the destroyed railroad lines, heated until they were malleable and twisted into loops, often resembling neckties.  This way the lines into  could not be easily rebuilt.
  Doesn't it look like modern art?
