My question was how do I pass along a variable from Calendar to another module.
Well, not exactly, young man. :-/

@jer78 Here is the Readme.md for third party modules, which details the notification system: https://github.com/MichMich/MagicMirror/blob/master/modules/README.md
Your module will receive a
CALENDAR_EVENTSnotification, with a payload which is an array of calendar events objects with the following attributes:title,startDate,endDate,fullDayEvent,locationandgeo.You can make your own module, or modify an existing one.
MMM-Trafficwill display Google Maps directions to a given destination. You can override itsreceiveNotificationfunction to (1) sort the payload to find the soonest event, (2) decide if there’s an event in the next 2 hours, and (3) display directions to the destination using thelocationorgeocoordinates.Remember, you’ll need to populate those fields when creating your event entries, and you may also need to provide a hint (e.g. “Colombus, OH”) to Google so it knows which “Olive Garden” or “Municipal Library” you’re looking for.

Someone woke up on the wrong side of the bed! Geez! What a hostile community. Nice to feel welcome for my first post!

@ninjabreadman Awesome! Thanks for pointing me in the right direction. Cheers!

@jer78 If you are still looking to get this configured see this thread here. I had (what I believe to be) the exact same request and I got it working with this.
