The Pear Tree Restaurant in the historic Bevier, Missouri is known throughout the state for serving the best steaks ever.

The green landscape just took my breath away as we drove along the countryside enroute to our home in Sta. Rosa, Laguna. We planned to move in 2000 but due to my son’s death, we decided to stick it out in Makati until the two girls reached their college years. During those days, we knew that south of Manila held a lot of exciting possibilities. Even before we bought our first home in Sta. Rosa, Laguna, we already purchased a membership at the Tagaytay Highlands for our children to enjoy. It’s been years since I last visited Tagaytay and Cavite. I sure got lazy to travel the past few years especially with the girls all grown up and not too enthusiastic to travel with their parents.
