Our Trips

We have been blessed with the sense of adventure and the love for travel. Paul Pitzer started his travels when he joined the Peace Corps and lived in Iran for two years in the mid 1960s. Grace Pitzer started traveling with her high school geography class when it went to Mexico for two weeks over the summer between her junior and senior years. Since getting married, as time and funds permitted we have traveled together.
