A simple tent serves the purpose

We bought this tent on sale, 2007 model.
We just came back from a camping trip at Lake Tahoe in May, 2008. The night was cold and showering. The tent kept us dry and shield wind well.
The only design improvement should be the vestibule entry, which opened a little bit too high that water would drop in the tent in wet conditions. Otherwise, it is really good.
