Aloha Gang, Several days ago, I sent out a notice that we had decided to end our 11 year run of Roni's Paradise, but there has been a change of heart and instead of explaining it myself, I've included Roni's message to our current members. My personal apologies for the inconvenience this has caused to any of you. Aloha, Lucky Roni's Message:

I guess by now you've probably seen that we decided to shut my site down at the end of January. After making the announcement to our members, contacting our affiliates and notifying other webmasters, emails started pouring in asking why. Our site was one their favorites and with the combination of my style, Lucky's photography and our beautiful island setting, Roni's Paradise was one of their best money makers. Even their wives enjoyed it! Right away I wondered if I'd made a mistake and definitely felt deep sadness and stress when member emails full of love and support started coming in from all over the globe. The last eleven years have been the most wonderful and fulfilling of my life. I've blossomed into a woman that came to understand her sexuality and the power it possessed to give pleasure and happiness. How could I turn that off and reel her in just because I'm turning 6O? More importantly, I've made dear friends for life and that is priceless. I just can't quit "cold turkey". That being said, I've decided to pull a Brett Favre (Google him if you need to) and come out of my very brief "retirement", re energized and committed to giving you the best content I can. Hey, athletes and celebrities do it all the time and since I'm a woman, it's my prerogative! Much Aloha, Roni
