I finally made time to do the schematic layout and custom PCB.  It is pretty basic but that did not stop me from doing an absolutely horrible job in Fritzing

No matter- it allowed me to lay out the board and do a quick PCB layout which should hopefully work :)

I panelized them using an open source panelizing tool I found from a Brian Lough video:

And 

I sent them off to PCBWay for fabrication and fingers crossed- I should have about 60 boards YAY!  If they work (might take a miracle knowing my luck lately) I will try to give a bunch away to anyone who wishes to make this project.  They could actually be used for ANY ESP project where you want to have an SD card, OLED, GPS or combination thereof.

All files, layouts, Gerbers etc are in the GitHub Repo. 

Winning...maybe
