The countdown is alive and well (for now). The only change to this year was that I added GPS. Now when power is applied, it will grab the current day/time from the GPS. So now if I lose power, when it boots it grabs the time and looks to see if the toggle switch is set to countdown to Christmas mode, if it is, it just starts counting down. Makes my life a lot easier when there is silly 2 second power outages. Maybe next year I will make a new frame for the whole display.

P.S. Be on the lookout for light up labels (days, hours, etc.) to come sometime soon.
