The Week in Tweets: April 2-9

A selection of messages that locals shared on Twitter this week.

Many residents in and around North Potomac and Darnestown—both young and old—are sharing their interests, activities and lives in 140 characters or less on Twitter. This week many people were talking about the possibility of a government shutdown. We have a selection of those tweets and more.

@wolftrust I'll miss visiting the National Parks #ifthegovernmentshutsdown. What will you miss if the government shuts down?

@mikeholden Catching up on current events. If #NFL owners & players don't get together & work something out by tomorrow, the government shuts down???
