I get the error Make sure the text shadow color is set to #e59740.

Not sure that is wrong with my code here. It will not let me past. I'm pretty certain the color is set correctly.

style.css 
/* Complete the challenge by writing CSS below */
.main-heading {
    text-shadow: 0 0 5px #be7b31;
}

.title {
text-shadow: 1px 3px 0px #e59740;
}
index.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 class="main-heading">Lake Tahoe, California</h1>
    </header>

        <div class="primary-content">
            <p class="intro">
                Lake Tahoe is one of the most breathtaking attractions 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 class="callout" href="#more">Find out more</a>
        </div><!-- End .primary-content -->

        <footer class="main-footer">
            <p>All rights reserved to the state of <a href="#">California</a>.</p>
            <a href="#top">Back to top &raquo;</a>

I've checked the exercice and you need to apply this code 

.title{
  text-shadow: 1px 3px 0 #e59740;
}

Seems that the 0px return an error, you just have to remove the px from the blur value.

Have a nice day :)
