Once again I do not see my error, any suggestions?

Can't find the error in my code, I have it specified exactly as it should be, in my opinion!

style.css 
/* Complete the challenge by writing CSS below */

@media (max-width: 1020px) {
  .main-header {
    background-color: tomato;
    color: white; }

  @media (max-width: 768px) {
    .title {
      font-size: 1.4rem;
    }
    h1 { 
      font-size: 5rem;
    }
index.html 
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
  <head>
    <title>Lake Tahoe</title>
    <link rel="stylesheet" href="page.css">
    <link rel="stylesheet" href="style.css">

  <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">

It looks like you haven't closed out your media queries. You can;t nest them (which means put one inside the other) and they can only appear one after the other.

@media (max-width: 1020px) {
  .main-header {
    background-color: tomato;
    color: white; }
}
  @media (max-width: 768px) {
    .title {
      font-size: 1.4rem;
    }
    h1 { 
      font-size: 5rem;
    }
}

So if you put the above code into your code challenge it should pass. :-)

Good luck
