Three or four weeks went by and we had a few fights but overall we got along. But it could get pretty hot in the evening and nights so we only slept in our underwear. We did not have air conditioning in those days but did have fans trying to move the hot air out. We shared a queen bed in the attic that my dad had converted for me into a bedroom. I think my parents thought having an older boy around would be good for me. Even at 16 he was really built and worked out a lot so looking back on the experience I can say he was very fit and faily muscular but not big.
When I was 12 years old my 16 year old cousin came to stay with us for the summer.
