It was pretty. It was a blue flag. It had some peace signs and hearts,&#8221; she said. &#8220;And that&#8217;s about it.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>But the flag she designed and made in her first-grade Harding Academy class last spring must be pretty special, as it, along with her classmates&#8217; creations, is hanging at 17,040 feet in a base camp of Mount Everest.<\/p>\n<p>Megan&#8217;s grandmother, Audrey Gonzalez, hung the international prayer flags during her two-month pilgrimage to Nepal and Tibet. Gonzalez was 68 years old and had just undergone a breast cancer operation at the time.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.tennessean.com\/apps\/pbcs.dll\/article?AID=\/20080725\/MICRO020203\/807250315\/1554\/MICRO0202\">Read more&#8230;<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.tennessean.com\/apps\/pbcs.dll\/gallery?Avis=DN&amp;Dato=20080723&amp;Kategori=COUNTY01&amp;Lopenr=807230802&amp;Ref=PH&amp;Profile=1554&amp;SectionCat=MICRO0202\">And don&#8217;t miss the photo slide show&#8230;<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Harding first graders make prayer flags for Mount Everest base camp Student&#8217;s grandmother hangs flags that spread messages of love,&#8230; <a href=\"https:\/\/audreytaylorgonzalez.com\/blog\/2008\/07\/26\/nashville-tennessean\/\">read more<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-125","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-uncategorized"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/audreytaylorgonzalez.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/125","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/audreytaylorgonzalez.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/audreytaylorgonzalez.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/audreytaylorgonzalez.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/audreytaylorgonzalez.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=125"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/audreytaylorgonzalez.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/125\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/audreytaylorgonzalez.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=125"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/audreytaylorgonzalez.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=125"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/audreytaylorgonzalez.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=125"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
