Fun facts: Actress Greer Garson and her oilman husband donated land from their Forked Lightning Ranch for the creation of the Pecos National Monument in 1965, which was later expanded to the Pecos National Historical Park. Jane Fonda now owns the Forked Lightning Ranch, which is apparently on the market for $19.5 million.
