+# Gadget Geocache PCB
+
+<!-- Describe your board in 2-3 sentences. What are you making? What will it do? -->
+I am making a PCB that connects the user interfaces with a gadget geocache to an arduino. It has ports for the power input,
+buttons, LED's, SD card, and the arduino itself. It will really help to simplify the wiring in my gadget geocache that I'm
+making for a local makerspace.
+
+<!-- How much is it going to cost? -->
+The total cost is about $60 dollars for the minium 5 pcb's from JLCPCB. Hopefully it will work the first time.
+
+<!-- Tell us a little bit about your design process. What were some challenges? What helped? ***Totally optional*** -->
+I started this project completely new to pcb design and even electronics in general. It really helped that I was enthusiastic
+and excited to complete this project because I spent many hours researching, prototyping, and designing this PCB. I bought a 
+breadboard to test the circuit before I submitted this to troubleshoot and make sure my design would work. It was difficult
+to find all the parts for it that JLCPCB had in stock and figure out how to control high power components with an arduino.
