(SOLVED) Can't seem to get past this task

Hey, can someone please help? I'm going through my code and i can't spot the mistake, yet the task doesn't go through saying "Did you specify the . title font-size?" or something... I'm in a need of a fresh set of eyes on this one.. :D

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">
  </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 -->

Hi there! You're doing great but have a few syntax errors. After the closing curly braces you are including a semicolon which is causing an error in your CSS. There are four instances of this.

.my-rule {
   /* insert rule here with semicolon */
}  /* no semicolon here */

Removing the extraneous semicolons causes the code to pass the challenge.

Hope this helps! :sparkles:

Thank you for the quick response! :) I took the semicolons down and it went through!
