Sesqui:I haven't ever dived in Pyramid, but I grew up in Spanish Springs off of Pyramid Highway and used to go swimming there occasionally. I stopped, however, after my cousin and I had a rather nasty allergic reaction to something in the water when the lake was a bit stirred up. Granted it was probably harmless, but I'm not entirely sure there isn't crud in that water that I don't want on me. I'd rather not get out with a full body rash and hives. My cousin reacted the same way, but I can't think of anyone else offhand that has had the same thing happen. So maybe we were just an oddity.
(sorry to usurp this amusing off topic thread into a more mundane path. please ignore me--unless you know what in that lake can cause such a reaction!)
I give up, what did the doctor tell you? I have pulled enough bodies out of that lake to know I am not welcome there. Bad Juju. Could also be boy cooties....
