TheWeatherman is once again in Detroit where the weather is the most unpredictable and has made some fine Profit from his Umbrella stand.

During his evenings he has shared his stories about how much there is to be made in this small city, a dear friend MamaPhoenix ears pointed north and eyes lit up when she heard of such opportunity of opening their very own store together with TheWeathermans fame and her people skills what could go wrong.

Together they started planning the store name and finally decided on Weather You Like it or Not.

With no time to waste they looked in the paper and saw an empty shop for sale in the high street, and made some calls to enquire, It was available to view and they both took a taxi right over.

They both looked around making sure this was going to be the perfect location to set up shop.

TheWeatherman looks over at MamaPhoenix and says

What do you think?

Business ventures were something of a staple in this thing of theirs.  All number of shops sprang up all around their fair cities, so it was no surprise that when her dear TheWeatherman approached her with ideas for an expansion of his already booming umbrella stand, she was all in.  She had an eye for décor if she did say so herself!  Although if he wasn't careful and keep a close eye on the young  phoenix, it would involve copious amounts of glitter.  But that was down the road.  Without delay the two were off to check out a lovely little storefront available in the Detroit business district.  It was in a good location with nice sidewalks to facilitate plenty of foot traffic.  Available parking was not too far away... 

She wasted no time and met her dear friend there at the potential shop.  She gave a light hmm as she looked at the front, envisioning the sign they might hang and the color scheme they might go with.  She nodded in approval before letting herself in.  Casting a critical eye over the space, she moved throughout it holding her hand out to different sections as she tossed out ideas for a layout quite animatedly to the delightful man of Weather.  Each season could have it's own featured area and unlike some seasonal stores they could stock all weather items all year round.  It was an odd novel concept, but it could work!  "What do you think?"  She turned to face him after a few moments of random rattling, some of which was quite intelligible.

TheWeatherman looks over at MamaPhoenix and can tell she was excited! you can just see the cogs working in her head and she is a woman that knows exactly what she wants, you do not hesitate to acknowledge that MamaPhoenix was interested.

He takes a long hard thing of what he could envision the store looking like but his creativity was not that of the great MamaPheonix.

his plan was to get as many ideas as possible from MamaPhoenix as possible, He puts his hand on her shoulder and says 

I think we should put an offer in right away before this opportunity is taken up by someone else what do you say?

Eyes shining she continued to lay things out in her mind.  The counter would go there for maximum visibility and security, that wall could be emblazoned with a gentle spring shower motif, maybe a hurricane over there for good measure.  But her musings were paused at the touch on her shoulder.  She jumped a little at the contact, but calmed quickly.  There was no danger here, only opportunity.  And yes! Things moved fast, especially here in the Motor City.  If they wanted to jump into business here, they had to hammer while the iron was hot...  Was that what they said?  Ah heck.  Either way she nodded, more than willing to throw in some of her own funding for this venture as well if he needed her to.

"I think this is a beautiful location and a perfect next step.  I'm on board if you are!"  She moved quietly over to the far wall and ran her fingertips across it envisioning a lovely snowscape.  Oh one would wonder if Weatherman was ready for the creativity he was unleashing.

TheWeatherman can not wait any long he immediately takes out his wallet and take s out a huge wad of cash and pays the estate agent the deposit

We will take it with immediate effect, where do I sign 

As the estate agent takes out the paperwork TheWeatherman looks over at MamaPhoenix and grins, the paperwork is them presented inform of him and signed, TheWeatherman eagerly awaits the keys to be handed over and once they are he takes one and give it to MamaPhoenix 

TheWeather man hurries out the Estate agent and gets to work clearing out any old rubbish left in the shop

Now the real fun begins do you have any idea on what colour we should paint the walls MamaPhoenix?

Excitement coursed through her as the deal was signed and paperwork figured out and keys given.  She accepted her key and affixed it to the rest of them that she carried about with her.  They wasted no time and cleaned up the store area eagerly with dreams of what this space was going to be.  Once it was beautiful, Hope would give one more once over the space.  The more she looked at it the more perfect it seemed to be.  She was thrilled that her dear friend had invited her to be a part of this venture.  

She looked up as she heard the question that was floated and she thought for a moment.  Her mind held all sorts of grandiose murals and paintings.  "I'll be honest with you, I hold very little artistic talent.  I can see what I would love to have on these walls but no clue how to implement it.  Maybe blues and simple weather scenes?  How are you at painting?"  She tilted her head a little as she looked around at the walls.  "We could keep it simple...  Maybe blues with white accents to depict lovely spring weather?"

TheWeatherman absolutely loves the idea from MamaPhoenix he picks up his coat and grabs her by the hand

Off to the hardware store let’s get some supplies and paint

Voldemort had heard tales of a absolutely entertaining and always correct weatherman, Something you only hear of in fairy tales and myths. He decided to visit the station one last time, pay his respects, and immortalize the man who gave the best forecasts anyone had ever heard. 

Once he arrived at the station, he stood where the legend once stood, He dropped to his knees, and he began to pray and plead to the gods above

WHY OH WHY MUST YOU HAVE TAKEN THIS MAN FROM US. 

Only the good die young

Kruns father had left countless journals of his trips to and from many places, and one of the most exquisite ones was about all his wonderful and suit saving umbrellas. Unfortunately with his death, the umbrellas were buried with him. He was very fond of them.

Excuse me, My father spoke very highly of your umbrellas. The quality I am seeing his is impeccable. I would like to get the same ones my father had, one in every color for every suit I own.

Krun waited patiently for the gentleman to go to the back and bring him out an absurd amount of umbrellas. He grabbed them, paying for them and leaving a very generous tip.

Thank you for the business, I will make sure I spread the word!
