Starting the blog counter the day that the course begins is problematic. It isn't until the completion of the firstflight assignment that student's blogs are actually tracked.
Currently, there isn't a way to stop the blog counter either, which would be nice for leaving the course website up after the course is completed, between semesters.
I have added blog_start and blog_stop within the site.yaml, assuming that we can easily swap out where blog_start part reads from, and maybe implement the blog_end later.
