Hi Doug, It looks like the <p class="intro"> doesn't have a closing tag </p> which makes the intro class invalid.

Hope this helps!

You need to give the paragraph element on line 14 the class intro.

'''HTML <!DOCTYPE html> <html> <head> <title>Lake Tahoe</title> <link rel="stylesheet" href="page.css"> <link rel="stylesheet" href="style.css"> </head> <body> <header id="top" class="main-header"> <span class="title">Journey Through the Sierra Nevada Mountains</span> <h1>Lake Tahoe, California</h1> </header> <div class="primary-content t-border"> <p class="intro"> Lake Tahoe is one of the most <span>breathtaking attractions</span> located in California. It's home to a number of ski resorts, summer outdoor recreation, and tourist attractions. Snow and skiing are a significant part of the area's reputation. </p> <a href="#more">Find out more</a> </div> <footer class="main-footer"> <p>All rights reserved to the state of <a href="#">California</a>.</p> <a href="#top">Back to top »</a> </footer> </body> </html>

You've got HTML in the head of your document, which is reserved for meta tags and links to style sheets, scripts, etc.

Remove the p tag and class intro here:

<head>
    <p class="intro">
    <title>Lake Tahoe</title>
    <link rel="stylesheet" href="page.css">
    <link rel="stylesheet" href="style.css">
  </head>

and put it here:

      <p class="intro">
        Lake Tahoe is one of the most <span>breathtaking attractions</span> located in California. It's home to a number of ski resorts, summer outdoor recreation, and tourist attractions. Snow and skiing are a significant part of the area's reputation.
