The time circuit clock will display the following via the LED displays.

Destination Time – (Top-Red)
The destination time is an area that shows a fixed date and time. This area is used to display an important date in your life such as wedding, Birthday or the date you first discovered this most excellent clock.

Present Time – (Middle-Green)
The present time is the current date and time. You set this initially when you download the Arduino and you can adjust the hour and minute via the RGB LCD display keypad.

Last Time Departed – (Bottom-Yellow)
The last time departed will alternate between three different important dates every 20 seconds. Use this for birthdays, the date you finished building the clock, the day you met your significant other, etc.

Features
The time circuit will announce the time between the hours of 8:00 AM and 9:30 PM. The time is generated via the Music Maker MP3 shield. The audio files for the time announcement was recorded by my wife and are included. To enhance the clock further, I enlisted a voice impersonator that recorded the time announcements as Doc Browns voice. The clock is 3D printed and utilizes (1) Arduino Uno, (1) Music Maker MP3 shield, (1)
ChronoDot real time clock, (1) RGB LCD keypad, (9) 3 mm LEDs, (1) voltage isolator and a few other components.
