Readers can check out new blogs on the Eagle’s website, including “Country 101,” by Eagle editor Scotta Callister, and “What’s on your mind?” by general manager Marissa Williams.

Here’s a sample from last week’s Country 101:

BATES – If I had gotten around to keeping a journal here on the Middle Fork in the past few months, this is what it might say:

Mid-November – Light snow falling: Wow, it’s gorgeous to see the snow falling onto the fields and forest. I hope it will stick …

Early December – 1 foot of snow: This is amazing – it’s like something out of Currier & Ives. I wonder if the snow will stay long enough for a white Christmas …

Late December – 2 feet of snow, and still falling: Incredible. Still beautiful. A little challenging to drive in. I wonder if the county plow has gone by. Hope I don’t get stuck on the ranch road just trying to get to Middle Fork Lane …

Early January – 3 feet of snow: Glad we got snow shoes for Christmas. Anybody seen the split-rail fence lately? It used to be right there by the cabin …

Late January – 3 feet and gaining: Hope this doesn’t melt in one fell swoop. Repeat after me: I will NOT complain about the snow. I will NOT complain about the snow. I will NOT complain about the snow.
