You're close! Just use a colon instead of a dot.

hover.css 
nav a:hover {
  color: #32673f
}

It should be colon (:) instead of period (.) between the a and the hover. Also, you are missing semi-colons (;) after your declarations on h1, h2, p, nav a, nav a:hover.

Good catch on the semicolons! They're actually not technically necessary for one-attribute rules, but it's a best practice to always use them, for sure.
